I have a query about the documentation: The default *method* is "exclusive" and is used for data sampled from a population that can have more extreme values than found in the samples. ... Setting the *method* to "inclusive" is used for describing population data or for samples that include the extreme points. In all my reading about quantile calculation methods, this is the first time I've come across this recommendation. Do you have a source for it or a justification? Thanks. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36018> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
