#' Relative median poverty gap
#'
#' Estimate the median of incomes less than the at-risk-of-poverty threshold (\code{arpt}).
#'
#'
#' @param formula a formula specifying the income variable
#' @param design a design object of class \code{survey.design} or class \code{svyrep.design} from the \code{survey} library.
#' @param quantiles income quantile, usually .5 (median)
#' @param percent fraction of the quantile, usually .60
#' @param na.rm Should cases with missing values be dropped?
#' @param ... arguments passed on to `survey::oldsvyquantile`
#'
#' @details you must run the \code{convey_prep} function on your survey design object immediately after creating it with the \code{svydesign} or \code{svrepdesign} function.
#'
#' @return Object of class "\code{cvystat}", which are vectors with a "\code{var}" attribute giving the variance and a "\code{statistic}" attribute giving the name of the statistic.
