In the sign test on a population median, what is done with values equal to the hypothesized median?


Every other one is given a positive sign.



They are excluded from the analysis.



They are all averaged, and if the average is greater than the median a positive sign is assigned to them.



In a continuous distribution, the probability of a value being exactly equal to the median is zero, so this will never occur.
