Fivenum

From Rosetta Code
Revision as of 13:12, 15 March 2020 by SqrtNegInf (talk | contribs) (→‎{{header|Sidef}}: Fix link: Perl 6 --> Raku)
Fivenum is a draft programming task. It is not yet considered ready to be promoted as a complete task, for reasons that should be found in its talk page.

Many big data or scientific programs use boxplots to show distributions of data.   In addition, sometimes saving large arrays for boxplots can be impractical and use extreme amounts of RAM.   It can be useful to save large arrays as arrays with five numbers to save memory.

For example, the   R   programming language implements Tukey's five-number summary as the fivenum function.


Task

Given an array of numbers, compute the five-number summary.


Note

While these five numbers can be used to draw a boxplot, statistical packages will typically need extra data. Moreover, while there is a consensus about the "box" of the boxplot, there are variations among statistical packages for the whiskers.

Alternate:

This solution is aimed at handling larger data sets more efficiently. It replaces the O(n log n) sort with O(n) quickselect. It also does not attempt to reproduce the R result exactly, to average values to get a median of an even number of data values, or otherwise estimate quantiles. The quickselect here leaves the input partitioned around the selected value, which allows another small optimization: The first quickselect call partitions the full input around the median. The second call, to get the first quartile, thus only has to process the partition up to the median. The third call, to get the minimum, only has to process the partition up to the first quartile. The 3rd quartile and maximum are obtained similarly. <lang go>package main

Kotlin

The following uses Tukey's method for calculating the lower and upper quartiles (or 'hinges') which is what the R function, fivenum, appears to use.

As arrays containing NaNs and nulls cannot really be dealt with in a sensible fashion in Kotlin, they've been excluded altogether. <lang scala>// version 1.2.21

Python: Pandas library

There are many ways to compute this kind of summary statistics (see wp:Percentile#Definitions). The Python Pandas library supports a range.

Pandas is a well known Python library. Its Dataframe.describe method produces summary stats from data.

(Though these 25% and 75% values do not correspond to the Fivenum Tukey quartile values specified in this task) <lang python>import pandas as pd pd.DataFrame([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]).describe()</lang>

Output:
              0
count  6.000000
mean   3.500000
std    1.870829
min    1.000000
25%    2.250000
50%    3.500000
75%    4.750000
max    6.000000

To get the fivenum values asked for, the pandas.DataFrame.quantile function can be used: <lang python>import pandas as pd pd.DataFrame([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]).quantile([.0, .25, .50, .75, 1.00], interpolation='nearest')</lang>

Output:
      0
0.00  1
0.25  2
0.50  3
0.75  5
1.00  6

The interpolation value supports more of the differing ways of calculation in use.

Racket

Racket's =quantile= functions use a different method to Tukey; so a new implementation was made.

<lang racket>#lang racket/base (require math/private/statistics/quickselect)

racket's quantile uses "Method 1" of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartile
Tukey (fivenum) uses "Method 2", so we will need a specialist median

(define (fivenum! data-v)

 (define (tukey-median start end)
   (define-values (n/2 parity) (quotient/remainder (- end start) 2))
   (define mid (+ start n/2))
   (if (zero? parity)
       (/ (+ (data-kth-value! (+ mid (sub1 parity))) (data-kth-value! mid)) 2)
       (data-kth-value! mid)))
 (define n-data (let ((l (vector-length data-v)))
                  (if (zero? l)
                      (raise-argument-error 'data-v "nonempty (Vectorof Real)" data-v)
                      l)))
 
 (define (data-kth-value! n) (kth-value! data-v n <))
 (define subset-size (let-values (((n/2 parity) (quotient/remainder n-data 2))) (+ n/2 parity)))
 
 (vector (data-kth-value! 0)
         (tukey-median 0 subset-size)
         (tukey-median 0 n-data)
         (tukey-median (- n-data subset-size) n-data)
         (data-kth-value! (sub1 n-data))))

(define (fivenum data-seq)

 (fivenum! (if (and (vector? data-seq) (not (immutable? data-seq)))

Stata

First build a dataset:

<lang stata>clear set seed 17760704 qui set obs 10000 gen x=rnormal()</lang>

The summarize command produces all the required statistics, and more:

<lang stata>qui sum x, detail di r(min),r(p25),r(p50),r(p75),r(max)</lang>

Output

-3.6345866 -.66536 .0026834 .68398139 3.7997103

It's also possible to use the tabstat command

<lang stata>tabstat x, s(mi q ma)</lang>

Output

    variable |       min       p25       p50       p75       max
