InterQuartile Range (IQR) Description

Any set of data can be described by its five-number summary. These five numbers, which give you the information you need to find patterns and outliers, consist of:

The minimum value of the dataset.
The first quartile Q1, which represents a quarter(25%) of the way through the list of all data.
The median of the data set, which represents the midpoint(50%) of the whole list of data.
The third quartile Q3, which represents three-quarters(75%) of the way through the list of all data.
The maximum or highest value of the data set.

These five values helps us to determine outliers present in our dataset.

Calculation of IQR

IQR = Q3 – Q1
MIN = Q1 - (1.5IQR)
MAX = Q3 + (1.5
IQR)

Installation

Sample dataset

Marks Students
3 Student1
57 Student2
65 Student3
98 Student4
43 Student5
44 Student6
54 Student7
99 Student8

Output Dataset after Removal

Marks Students
57 Student2
65 Student3
98 Student4
43 Student5
44 Student6
54 Student7

It is clearly visible that the rows containing Student1 andStudent8 have been removed due to them being Outliers.
