IQRw {DescTools} | R Documentation

## The (weighted) Interquartile Range

### Description

computes interquartile range of the x values. Weights are supported.

### Usage

    IQRw(x, weights = NULL, na.rm = FALSE, type = 7)

### Arguments

`x` | a numeric vector.
`weights` | an optional numeric vector giving the sample weights.
`na.rm` | logical. Should missing values be removed?
`type` | an integer selecting one of the many quantile algorithms, see `Quantile()`.

### Details

This implementation is based on `Quantile()` function, which allows to define weights.

    w <- c(5, 5, 4, 1)/15

    IQRw(x=x, weights=w)
