Quartile vs. Quintile — What's the Difference?

In statistics, a quartile is a type of quantile which divides the number of data points into four parts, or quarters, of more-or-less equal size. The data must be ordered from smallest to largest to compute quartiles; as such, quartiles are a form of order statistic.

Each of four equal groups into which a population can be divided according to the distribution of values of a particular variable

Any of the groups that result when a frequency distribution is divided into five groups of equal size.

Any of the groups that result when a frequency distribution is divided into four groups of equal size.

Any of the values that separate each of these groups.

Any of the values that separate each of these groups.

(statistics) Any of the quantiles which divide an ordered sample population into five equally numerous subsets.

(statistics) Any of the three points that divide an ordered distribution into four parts, each containing a quarter of the population.

(by extension) A subset thus obtained.

(statistics) Any one of the four groups so divided.

(astrology) An aspect of planets that are distant from each other by one fifth of a zodiac (72°)

Same as Quadrate.
