Someone to clarify to what each of this terms corresponds exactly ? and what if one refers to the 2nd decile or the 3rd quantile ?
Percentile: you divide your population or sample by 100%. So the 12 percentile is 12% and the 4th percentile is 4% ?
Quintile ?
Decile ?
Quantile ?
Quartile ?作者: amqata 时间: 2011-7-13 16:41
never mind, got it. just have to divide by 100 depending on what you have.
Just know that quintile is 5, decile 10, quartile 4 percentile 100 and the mediane for the most common one作者: ishfaque 时间: 2011-7-13 16:41
Quintile - divide population by 5
Decile - divide population by 10
Quantile - just refers to a point that you have used to divide up a population
Quartile - divide population by 4作者: Maddin 时间: 2011-7-13 16:41
Miss Yiota, median is the middle no. mode is the most common, i hope ur sentence above was a typo.
