quantiles

Three quantiles packed into the standard summary shape.

Returns (y: <mid>, ymin: <lo>, ymax: <hi>) where each component is the type-7 quantile at the matching probability in probs. Probabilities are not reordered: pass them in (low, central, high) order.

Usage

quantiles(
  values,
  probs: (0.25, 0.5, 0.75),
)

Parameters

Parameter Default Description
values Array of numbers; non-numeric entries are dropped.
probs (0.25, 0.5, 0.75) Three probabilities in [0, 1], ordered low-mid-high.

Returns

Dict (y, ymin, ymax); all-none if values has no numerics.

Examples

Median plus the IQR via explicit probabilities.

#let s = quantiles(range(1, 10), probs: (0.25, 0.5, 0.75))
