     50 ## Usage
     51 
     52 ```javascript
     53 var median = require( '@stdlib/stats/base/dists/kumaraswamy/median' );
     54 ```
     55 
     56 #### median( a, b )
     57 
     58 Returns the [median][median] of a [Kumaraswamy's double bounded][kumaraswamy-distribution] distribution with first shape parameter `a` and second shape parameter `b`.
     59 
     60 ```javascript
     61 var v = median( 1.0, 1.0 );
     62 // returns 0.5
     63 
     64 v = median( 4.0, 12.0 );
     65 // returns ~0.487
     66 
     67 v = median( 2.0, 8.0 );
     68 // returns ~0.288
     69 ```
     70 
     71 If provided `NaN` as any argument, the function returns `NaN`.
     72 
     73 ```javascript
     74 var v = median( NaN, 2.0 );
     75 // returns NaN
     76 
     77 v = median( 2.0, NaN );
     78 // returns NaN
     79 ```
     80 
     81 If provided `a <= 0`, the function returns `NaN`.
     82 
     83 ```javascript
     84 var y = median( -1.0, 0.5 );
     85 // returns NaN
     86 
     87 y = median( 0.0, 0.5 );
     88 // returns NaN
     89 ```
     90 
     91 If provided `b <= 0`, the function returns `NaN`.
     92 
     93 ```javascript
     94 var y = median( 0.5, -1.0 );
     95 // returns NaN
     96 
     97 y = median( 0.5, 0.0 );
     98 // returns NaN
     99 ```
