Comments

The median of a multiset is either the middle part (for odd length), or the average of the two middle parts (for even length).

Examples

			The a(n) factorizations for n = 120, 960, 5760, 6720:
  120      960         5760            6720
  4*5*6    2*16*30     16*18*20        4*30*56
  2*6*10   4*12*20     3*5*6*8*8       10*21*32
           8*10*12     4*4*6*6*10      12*20*28
           3*4*4*4*5   2*2*8*10*18     4*5*6*7*8
                       2*2*2*4*4*5*9   2*4*7*10*12
