Ian Cook reassigned ARROW-13772: -------------------------------- Assignee: Ian Cook (was: Nicola Crane) > [R] Binding for median() and quantile() aggregation functions > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ARROW-13772 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-13772 > Project: Apache Arrow > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: R > Reporter: Nicola Crane > Assignee: Ian Cook > Priority: Critical > Labels: kernel, pull-request-available > Fix For: 6.0.0 > > Time Spent: 3.5h > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > Another aggregate function we’ll need to look at is median(). > That should in theory map to the existing quantile kernel and the > hopefully-coming-soon hash_quantile kernel with q = 0.5, but that will not > work right now for several reasons (see > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-13309). > However we also have a pair of > approximate quantile kernels: tdigest and hash_tdigest that we could map > median() to. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
