I would like to have the extreme end of the upper whisker on the box plot co-incide with the 98% of the data. According to the documents: whis (default 1.5) defines the length of the whiskers as a function of the inner quartile range. They extend to the most extreme data point within ( whis*(75%-25%) ) data range.
So, in theory, a value of whis=1.9 should be what is needed but this seems to produce a much lower point - what value do I need to use?
