I think the patch is occasionally (once every 512 times on average) sending zero to "array quantile" which then outputs the index of the first nonzero number in the table -- in this case a point with probability about 1e-45.
Maybe try random 1e8 (or so) and divide by 1e8 to get a more continuous, less grainy random sample out of the array. cheers Miller On Fri, Nov 22, 2013 at 01:51:19AM +0000, peiman khosravi wrote: > Hello, > > Has anyone got any experience with [array quantile]? > > I'm getting some strange results and I've done everything I can think of. > > I've attached a patch that should clarify the problem.
