I want to compute the percentile of all of 94 elements, i tried
quantile(data) but i got an error like
Error in sort.list(x, partial = unique(c(lo, hi))) :
 'x' must be atomic for 'sort.list'
Have you called 'sort' on a list?
Can some one help me abouth this ?
Thanks for any idea...

I don't know if quantile has a default for probs but if it does then try:

quantile( unlist(mylist) )   # untested.
