[Numpy-discussion] ticket for O(n) median function?

[Sturla Molden]

I could not find any, so I'll ask if it's ok to create one. I have a 
patch for /numpy/lib/function_base.py that uses any 'select' function to 
obtain the median. I'll also submit the Cython code for quickselect.

Attachment (median.py.gz) contains the suggested implementation of 
median. I disabled overwrite_input because the median function calls 
numpy.apply_along_axis.
