The median is an average. Mean, median, and mode are all considered forms of averages.

I have heard this argument before. In the US and way back when I was in school, it was taught that "sum of numeric data points divided by number of data points" == average == mean. The rest were taught as "also statistically relevant functions depending on the type of data". Semantics of a joke based on another joke. 😅
