  2. Quartile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartile

    The first quartile (Q 1) is defined as the 25th percentile where lowest 25% data is below this point. It is also known as the lower quartile. The second quartile (Q 2) is the median of a data set; thus 50% of the data lies below this point. The third quartile (Q 3) is the 75th percentile where

  3. Quantile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantile

    There is one fewer quantile than the number of groups created. Common quantiles have special names, such as quartiles (four groups), deciles (ten groups), and percentiles (100 groups). The groups created are termed halves, thirds, quarters, etc., though sometimes the terms for the quantile are used for the groups created, rather than for the ...

  4. Percentile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentile

    The 25th percentile is also known as the first quartile (Q 1), the 50th percentile as the median or second quartile (Q 2), and the 75th percentile as the third quartile (Q 3). For example, the 50th percentile (median) is the score below (or at or below, depending on the definition) which 50% of the scores in the distribution are found.

  5. Decile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decile

    A decile is one possible form of a quantile; others include the quartile and percentile. [2] A decile rank arranges the data in order from lowest to highest and is done on a scale of one to ten where each successive number corresponds to an increase of 10 percentage points.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_probability...

    Commonly used quantiles include quartiles (which divide a range into four groups), deciles (ten groups), and percentiles (one hundred groups). The groups themselves are termed halves, thirds, quarters, etc., though the terms for the quantiles are sometimes used to refer to the groups, rather than to the cut points. quartile

  7. Interquartile range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interquartile_range

    It is defined as the difference between the 75th and 25th percentiles of the data. [2] [3] [4] To calculate the IQR, the data set is divided into quartiles, or four rank-ordered even parts via linear interpolation. [1] These quartiles are denoted by Q 1 (also called the lower quartile), Q 2 (the median), and Q 3 (also called the

  8. Five-number summary - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five-number_summary

    The five-number summary gives information about the location (from the median), spread (from the quartiles) and range (from the sample minimum and maximum) of the observations. Since it reports order statistics (rather than, say, the mean) the five-number summary is appropriate for ordinal measurements , as well as interval and ratio measurements.

  9. Seven-number summary - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven-number_summary

    The middle three values – the lower quartile, median, and upper quartile – are the usual statistics from the five-number summary and are the standard values for the box in a box plot. The two unusual percentiles at either end are used because the locations of all seven values will be approximately equally spaced if the data is normally ...
