Five number summary for a variable in a data.frame, by a subsetting variable

1	fivenumBy(x, what, which, type = 3, N = FALSE)

`x`	A `data.frame`
`what`	A character string giving the name of the variable to be summarized
`which`	A character string giving the name of the subsetting variable
`type`	A number passd into `quantile` telling it how to compute the quantiles. Defaults to `type=3` which should give output that matches the default output from SAS.
`N`	Whether to include the sample size in the summary (making it a 6 number summary). Defaults to `N=FALSE`.

The 'five number summary' is the minimum, quartiles and maximum, where the quartiles are computed using SAS's default approach. These will generally not be the same as the hinges as originally described by Tukey.

A matrix, each row of which gives the five number summary of x[, what] for each value of x[, which].
