Compute mid-cumulative probabilities and mid-quantiles
midecdf(x, na.rm = FALSE)
midquantile(x, probs = 1:3/4, na.rm = FALSE)An object of class class
midecdf or midquantile with mid-cumulative probabilities and mid-quantiles. For midecdf, this is a list that contains:
unique values of the vector x at which mid-cumulative probabilities are calculated.
estimated mid-cumulative probabilities.
interpolating function of the points (x,y).
input values.
For midquantile, this is a list that contains:
probabilities probs at which mid-quantiles are calculated.
estimated mid-cumulative probabilities.
interpolating function of the points (x,y).
input values.
numeric vector of observations used to estimate the mid-cumulative distribution or the mid-quantiles.
numeric vector of probabilities with values in [0,1].
logical value indicating whether NA values should be stripped before the computation proceeds.
