[jira] [Created] (MATH-1347) Wrong equation in Javadoc of Percentile.EstimationType, LAGACY, variable estimation

Richard Brunauer created MATH-1347:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Wrong equation in Javadoc of Percentile.EstimationType, LAGACY, variable estimation
                 Key: MATH-1347
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-1347
             Project: Commons Math
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.6
         Environment: Windows 7
            Reporter: Richard Brunauer
            Priority: Trivial


The Javadoc entry for Enum Percentile.EstimationType LAGACY uses a wrong equation for variable estimate. 

Explaination in version 3.0, 3.6 source code and 3.6 semantics do an interpolation between two values. The quation for variable estimation has only a ceiling function. This does not match.
