David,

my.boxplot.stats is modified from boxplot.stats (package grDevices) as
follows. x is the original argument, I guess it's the data object for
processing. I only added "type". Thanks.

{
    if (coef < 0)
        stop("'coef' must not be negative")
    nna <- !is.na(x)
    n <- sum(nna)
    stats <- stats::*fivenum*(x, na.rm = TRUE)
    iqr <- diff(stats[c(2, 4)])
    if (coef == 0)
        do.out <- FALSE
    else {
        out <- if (!is.na(iqr)) {
            x < (stats[2L] - coef * iqr) | x > (stats[4L] + coef *
                iqr)

            stats[c(1, 5)] <- range(x[!out], na.rm = TRUE)
    }
    conf <- if (do.conf)
        stats[3L] + c(-1.58, 1.58) * iqr/sqrt(n)

        nna] else numeric(0L))
