Note, it doesn't by definition have to be split by the median, though the median is usually considered the best place. As far as your second question... it may be better, or it may not. I'm pretty sure it will depend heavily on the implementation details and the data set in question. --[[User:Rednaxela|Rednaxela]] 14:51, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
