Package: perccalc 1.0.5

perccalc: Estimate Percentiles from an Ordered Categorical Variable

An implementation of two functions that estimate values for percentiles from an ordered categorical variable as described by Reardon (2011, isbn:978-0-87154-372-1). One function estimates percentile differences from two percentiles while the other returns the values for every percentile from 1 to 100.
