Seven-Number Summaries
Description
Function to compute seven-number summaries (minimum, 1st octile,
1st quartile, median, 3rd quartile, 7th octile, maximum)
Usage
sevenNS(x, na.rm = TRUE, type = 7)
Arguments
x
numeric vector
na.rm
logical; remove NA before the computations.
type
an integer between 1 and 9 selecting one of nine quantile
algorithms; for more details see quantile.
Details
In contrast to Tukey (1977) who proposes hinges and eighths,
we use function quantile.
Value
A numeric vector of length 7 containing the summary information.
