A Top Bottom Rule for JMP


I need to find the top 20% of a data attribute of a data table in JMP. Excel has a Top-Bottom Rule that help find the same but JMP doesn't quite have it. Is there anyway to figure the top 20% of a column in JMP?


Solution

  • You can use the Col Quantile function to get the value corresponding to any percentile. Top 20% cutoff would be:

    Col Quantile(:Calories, 0.8);
    

    0.5 would be the median.
