Description
To calculate the 95th percentile value:
1. Assuming that the number of data is N in total, calculate K = N x 0.95.
2. Arrange the data in ascending order from smallest to largest. The K value in the sorted list will be 95th percentile value.
3. If K is not an integer, then the value needs to be rounded up.
[Example]
According to below graph, there are 6 data values in total, arrange these 6 data values from smallest to largest:
4.51 KBps、6 KBps、7 KBps、11.5 KBps、12 KBps、13.06 KBps
K = 6*95% is not an integer, so round to 6.
The 95th percentile should be the 6th data value in sorted list, which is 13.06 KBps.
