Hi All,
Is the definition and/or algorithm for the 'Hinges' (upper and lower)
in Boxplot available somewhere online?
I would like to know a little more than what is described in
boxplot.stats. In particular I am trying to understand exactly how it
differs from the default (Type 7) of the quantile function.


Many thanks,
Fredrik
