public static Series Percentile50( string seriesName, SeriesCollection sc ) |
Parameters
- seriesName
- The name of the series which will be displayed on the chart, i.e. its label.
- sc
- A collection of series objects. For example, to evaluate this indicator for two series you will need to pass a series collection containing this two series.
Recall that the percentile is the value such that at least
interest
-percent of the data set items
are less than or equal to this value, or equivalently if at least (100-interest)
percent of the items are greater than or equal to this value.
Remarks:
- The
50
-th percentile is the measure of centrality of a data set known as the median. The median can also be evaluated using FinancialMedian. - The
25
-th,50
-th,75
-th percentiles are often referred to as the1
-st,2
-nd (median) and3
-rd quartile respectively. The term quartile refers to the fact that these three values will roughly divide the data set considered into four equal parts.
