    Define a vectorized function which takes nested sequence

    numpy array as output, evaluating the function over successive
    tuples of the input arrays like the python map function except it uses
    the broadcasting rules of numpy.

    with the first element of the input.  This can be avoided by specifying
    the otypes argument as either a string of typecode characters or a list
    of data-types specifiers.  There should be one data-type specifier for
    each output.

    """Compute the median along the specified axis.

    Returns the median of the array elements.  The median is taken
    over the first axis of the array by default, otherwise over
    the specified axis.

    Parameters
    ----------
    a : array-like
        Input array or object that can be converted to an array
    axis : {int, None}, optional
        Axis along which the medians are computed. The default is to
        compute the median along the first dimension.  axis=None
        returns the median of the flattened array

    out : ndarray, optional
        Alternative output array in which to place the result. It must
        have the same shape and buffer length as the expected output
        but the type will be cast if necessary.

    overwrite_input : {False, True}, optional
       If True, then allow use of memory of input array (a) for
       calculations. The input array will be modified by the call to
       median. This will save memory when you do not need to preserve
       the contents of the input array. Treat the input as undefined,
       but it will probably be fully or partially sorted. Default is
       False. Note that, if overwrite_input is true, and the input
       is not already an ndarray, an error will be raised.

    Returns
    -------
    median : ndarray.
        A new array holding the result is returned unless out is
        specified, in which case a reference to out is returned.
        Return datatype is float64 for ints and floats smaller than
        float64, or the input datatype otherwise.

    See Also
    -------
    mean

    Notes
    -----
    Given a vector V length N, the median of V is the middle value of
    a sorted copy of V (Vs) - i.e. Vs[(N-1)/2], when N is odd. It is
    the mean of the two middle values of Vs, when N is even.
