HI:
I am totally new to this list, and I need someone's help.
I have some code written in C which takes an array of arbitrary
values, a desired percentile, and returns the desired percentile.
I also have the descriptive statistics module, in a Perl program that
I have running 24/7. It spends most of it's time getting the
requested percentile.
(In comparison, the median XS program is hundreds of times faster.)
So what's the correct way to have a Perl program pass some "@array"
to an inline C program, do its voodoo, and return the value at the
percentile value I requested?
Don't worry about helping me with the percentile program in C, I've
got that part handled. (Unless I have to change it for the inline
stuff.)
Sincerely,
Gregg Allen
