What is IQR?

The interquartile range is the width of the middle half of the data: Q3 minus Q1. It is immune to the largest and smallest quarters entirely, which is why it is the spread measure used to define what counts as an outlier rather than the full range.

How it works

The quartiles come from the same pass that produces every other statistic on the page, so the IQR, the fences at Q1 − 1.5 × IQR and Q3 + 1.5 × IQR, and the outlier page can never disagree about where a value falls. The fences are printed even though this page does not flag anything, because they are what makes the number useful beyond a box-plot width.
