hi
I have a problem with  Median in Survival.
when I use
S1=survfit(Surv(Time,Status))
the result shows the median but I cannot use it as numeric!
S1$median in Null

That does not look like a formula.

Furthermore I do not think there is an element in a survfit.object named 'median'. (It's certainly not documented on the help pages.) Objects are passed to their print methods and the `print.survfit` function passes off its data argument first to `survmean`, then to `pfun`, then to `minmin` which does the job of calculating a median, which print.survfit then prints (as a side-effect using `cat`), but never stores in a returned object.

Is this is homework?
