-Median ranks are used to obtain an estimate of the unreliability, <math>Q({{T}_{j}}),</math> for each failure at a <math>50%</math> confidence level. In the case of grouped data, the ranks are estimated for each group of failures, instead of each failure.

-For example, when using a group of 10 failures at 100 hours, 10 at 200 hours and 10 at 300 hours, Weibull++ estimates the median ranks (<math>Z</math> values) by solving the cumulative binomial equation with the appropriate values for order number and total number of test units.
-For 10 failures at 100 hours, the median rank, <math>Z,</math> is estimated by using:
-::<math>0.50=\underset{k=j}{\overset{N}{\mathop \sum }}\,\left( \begin{matrix}
-   N  \\
-   k  \\
-\end{matrix} \right){{Z}^{k}}{{\left( 1-Z \right)}^{N-k}}</math>
-with:
-::<math>N=30,\text{ }J=10</math>
-where one <math>Z</math> is obtained for the group, to represent the probability of 10 failures occurring out of 30.
-For 10 failures at 200 hours, <math>Z</math> is estimated by using:
-::<math>0.50=\underset{k=j}{\overset{N}{\mathop \sum }}\,\left( \begin{matrix}
-   N  \\
-   k  \\
-\end{matrix} \right){{Z}^{k}}{{\left( 1-Z \right)}^{N-k}}</math>
-where:
-::<math>N=30,\text{ }J=20</math>
-to represent the probability of 20 failures out of 30.
-For 10 failures at 300 hours, <math>Z</math> is estimated by using:
-::<math>0.50=\underset{k=j}{\overset{N}{\mathop \sum }}\,\left( \begin{matrix}
-   N  \\
-   k  \\
-\end{matrix} \right){{Z}^{k}}{{\left( 1-Z \right)}^{N-k}}</math>
-where:
-::<math>N=30,\text{ }J=30</math>
-to represent the probability of 30 failures out of 30.
