// ! Median processor for combining source data values.
//!
//! This module provides a processor that calculates the median of multiple input values.
//! Median calculation provides a robust measure of central tendency that is less affected
//! by outliers compared to the arithmetic mean.
//!
//! The module provides:
//!
//! - The [`MedianProcessor`] struct which implements median calculation
//! - Support for a minimum source count requirement
//! - Proper handling of both odd and even number of data points
//!
//! # Median Calculation
//!
//! The median calculation follows these rules:
//!
//! - For odd number of values, the median is the middle value after sorting
//! - For even number of values, the median is the average of the two middle values
//! - Processing fails if fewer than the required minimum sources are available

/// Processor that calculates the median of input values.
///
/// The `MedianProcessor` computes the median of a set of input values, requiring a minimum
/// number of data sources to be present. This provides a robust measure of central tendency
/// that is resistant to outliers in the data.
///
/// # Minimum Source Count
///
/// The processor requires at least `min_source_count` data points to calculate a median.
/// If fewer data points are provided, processing will fail with an error.
///
