Dear fellow fedora users, If I have a data file called 15.dat with the following content: $ cat 15.dat 1 3 1 0 2
I think you dropped the "6" from this copy.
And I want to find min, quartile 1, median, quartile 3 and maximum (Five number summary) We can use datamash like $ cat 15.dat | datamash min 1 q1 1 median 1 q3 1 max 1 0 1 1.5 2.75 6 Q3 is reported as 2.75 but if we split the data file in half the number is 3.
I looked at the various ways of calculating quartiles and I can't find one that gives this result, but it is the same result as you can get from R (which datamash claims to be equivalent to):
data <- c(0,1,1,2,3,6) summary(data) Min. 1st Qu. Median Mean 3rd Qu. Max. 0.000 1.000 1.500 2.167 2.750 6.000 I can't tell you any more than that. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
