Statistics[Percentile] - compute percentiles
Calling Sequence
Percentile(A, p, ds_options)
Percentile(X, p, rv_options)
Parameters
A
-
Array or Matrix data set; data sample
X
algebraic; random variable or distribution
p
algebraic; percentile
ds_options
(optional) equation(s) of the form option=value where option is one of ignore, method, or weights; specify options for computing the percentile of a data set
rv_options
(optional) equation of the form numeric=value; specifies options for computing the percentile of a random variable
Description
The Percentile function computes the specified percentile of the specified random variable or data set.
The first parameter can be a data set (represented as an Array or a Matrix data set), a distribution (see Statistics[Distribution]), a random variable, or an algebraic expression involving random variables (see Statistics[RandomVariable]).
The second parameter p is the percentile.
Options
For a description of the available options, see the Statistics[Quantile] help page. Calling Percentile with percentile is equivalent to calling Quantile with probability .
Compatibility
The A parameter was updated in Maple 16.
Examples
Compute the percentile of the Weibull distribution with parameters a and b.
Use numeric parameters.
Generate a random sample of size 100000 drawn from the above distribution and compute the sample percentile.
Consider the following Matrix data set.
We compute 29th percentile of each of the columns.
