Aleksei Balan (migrated from Bugzilla): Hello Apache community.
I use JMeter almost every day and attach its data to my reports. That is why I care about accurate results so much. The median is calculating incorrectly. It is not corresponding to wikipedia example. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Median (example at the top right corner of the page) The percentile is calculating incorrectly. It is not corresponding to wikipedia example. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentile (Example 3) To help with the fixes I provided pull requests for both of them.
And now you are discussing is it a bug or a feature and wondering should something be changed or not.
All right then.
@pmouawad (migrated from Bugzilla): Hello Aleksei, I didn't want to be rude by closing issue. First thanks for your time, your PR and work.
I closed the PR for the following reasons:
Still maybe there is a better way of fixing the issue, SO I reopened the bugs. It appears to me we could fix median as per your PR and use Math Percentile setup with R_1 accross all JMeter library.
But I won't touch them myself as I have no firm opinion.
Thank you
Aleksei Balan (migrated from Bugzilla): Hello Apache community,
Can you please review these two pull requests https://github.com/apache/jmeter/pull/295 https://github.com/apache/jmeter/pull/296
They are fixing some calculation defects. I understand that these errors affect the results very rarely (especially on big number of samples) but still I think it is a good idea to have more precise calculations.
Thank you.
