How it is calculated
Sex is read from M/F, male/female, E/K, erkek/kadın or the Arabic words; anything else is counted as not stated rather than guessed.
The table is calculated in your browser and can be copied into a spreadsheet.
SD = √[Σ(x − mean)² / (n − 1)]Quartiles: linear interpolation between ranked values (type 7)
Worked example: Ages 10, 20, 30, 40, 50: mean 30.0 (SD 15.8), median 30.0 (IQR 20.0 – 40.0).

Questions
What format does the list need?
One participant per line: the age, then the sex, separated by a comma, semicolon or tab. A header line and lines that cannot be read are skipped and counted.
