A Simple Formula for Quantiles on the TI-82/83 Calculator.

Eisner, Milton P.

Mathematics and Computer Education, v31 n3 p237-40 Fall 1997

The concept of percentile is a fundamental part of every course in basic statistics. Many such courses are now taught to students and require them to have TI-82 or TI-83 calculators. The functions defined in these calculators enable students to easily find the percentiles of a discrete data set. (PVD)
