Median of Streaming Numbers

You are tasked with analyzing a stream of integers. Implement a program that maintains the current median of a stream of numbers after each new number is added. The program should read a sequence of integers until EOF, one integer per line, and print the median after each number. If the total count of numbers is odd, the median should be the middle number. If it’s even, the median should be the average of the two middle numbers, rounded to two decimal places. Example: Input: 1 5 2 4 3 Output: 1.00 3.00 2.00 3.00 3.00
