==Description==
 +
*This function gives the <math>k^{th}</math> percentile value in a given range.
 +
*Percentile means any of the 100 equal parts into which the range of the values of a set of data can be divided in order to show the distribution of those values.
 +
*The percentile of a given value is determined by the percentage of the values that are smaller than that value.
 +
*For example we can have the <math>25^{th}</math> percentile is the value  below which 25 percent of the observations may be found.
 +
*The 25th percentile is called  as the first quartile (Q1), the 50th percentile as the median  quartile (Q2), and the 75th percentile as the third quartile (Q3).
 +
*In general, percentiles and quartiles are specific types of quantiles.

PERCENTILE (Array,kth)


  • is the array of data .
  • is the Percentile value.
    • PERCENTILE(),returns the k-th percentile of values in a range.

Description

  • This function gives the   percentile value in a given range.
  • Percentile means any of the 100 equal parts into which the range of the values of a set of data can be divided in order to show the distribution of those values.
  • The percentile of a given value is determined by the percentage of the values that are smaller than that value.
  • For example we can have the   percentile is the value below which 25 percent of the observations may be found.
  • The 25th percentile is called as the first quartile (Q1), the 50th percentile as the median quartile (Q2), and the 75th percentile as the third quartile (Q3).
  • In general, percentiles and quartiles are specific types of quantiles.
  • In  ,   is the array of data that indicating relative standing and   is the Percentile value in the range  (inclusive).
  • This function will return the result as error when
1. The array value is empty.
2.   is non-numeric or   or  .

Examples

1.

Spreadsheet
A B C D
1 5 7 2 9 
=PERCENTILE(A1:D1,0.4) = 5.4
