numpy doc for percentile function
Hi, I'm looking for the entry point in Numpy doc for the percentile function. I'm assuming it should sit in routines.statistics but do not see it : http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/reference/routines.statistics.html Am I missing something ? If indeed the percentile entry should be added, do you agree it could be added to the "Histogram" section ? (and "Histogram" would become "Histograms and percentiles") Also, as Frédéric Bastien pointed out, I feel that the current doc build is broken (especially the links :-( ) Best, Pierre

I don't see it in the docs either.

IMO it should go under the extremal values header and this should be changed to order statistics.

Indeed. It does look that way. It is the same on my local build. Perhaps this deserves a separate message. They show up here. http://docs.scipy.org/numpy/docs/numpy-docs/reference/routines.statistics.rs... Skipper

Seems reasonable. I'm merging some edits from the doc wiki, I'll include this unless someone has a better suggestion.

It's quite a painful process to fix all doc build errors. Any help would be appreciated here. In principle it's simple: build the docs with latest Sphinx by typing "make latex" in the doc directory (gives O(700) warnings), then go through the build log to locate issues. Takes a long time though. Ralf
