In cpr: Control Polygon Reduction

Description

For data X = x1, x2, ..., xn, with order statistics x(1), x(2), ..., x(r) return the quantiles for a trimmed data set, e.g., X \ x(1), x(r) (trim = 1), or X \ x(1), x(2), x(r-1), x(r) (trim = 2).

Usage

trimmed_quantile(x, trim = 1L, use_unique = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

x	a numeric vector
trim	defaults to 1, omitting the min and the max
use_unique	logical, if true (defaults), base the quantiles on unique values, if false, base the quantiles on all data, after trimming.
