This is somewhat off-topic. Technically one does not need to do a full
sort to get a median. I am just wondering how straightforward
would it be to modify 'sort' to just pickup the N-th element?
E.g. there is "select()" algorithm in the "Numerical Recipes"
which was faster than glibc's qsort() when I tried it.
