Description

• 

The Trim and Winsorize commands can be used to eliminate extreme points in a data set.

• 

The Trim command return all points from X between lth and uth percentiles.

• 

The Winsorize command is similar to Trim except that the extreme points in X are replaced with the values of the lth or the uth percentile (whichever is closer).

• 

The first parameter X is the data set, given as e.g. a Vector.

• 

The second parameter l is the lower percentile, the third parameter u is the upper percentile. Both l and u must be numeric constants between 0 and 100. A common choice for l and u is 5 and 95 respectively.
