Line 1: == The task needs clarification == ~~== Convoluted description ==~~ * What the task is actually asking for is the 5 numbers used to draw a boxplot. This has nothing to do with "big data", or with producing a "smaller array". ~~[[User:Eoraptor\|Eoraptor]]~~Requiring ~~([[User~~that ~~talk:Eoraptor\|talk]])~~the 20five numbers yield the same boxplot if they are treated as data is pretty useless:35 the task emphasizes space reduction, 25but ~~February~~it ~~2018~~will ~~(UTC)~~not save space. * There are several conventions for boxplot statistics. Not all statistical programs draw boxplots like R. * Also, 5 numbers are obviously not enough to reproduce a boxplot, as outliers are usually drawn as well. This is not a problem if we admit we don't need the outliers. [[User:Eoraptor\|Eoraptor]] ([[User talk:Eoraptor\|talk]]) 20:35, 25 February 2018 (UTC)
