How to determine the percentiles of a vector values in R?

R Programming Server Side Programming Programming

Percentile helps us to determine the values that lie at a certain percent in a data set. For example, if we have a vector of size 100 with containing any values and suppose that the tenth-percentile of the vector is 25, which means there are ten percent values in the vector that are less than 25, or we can say, there are ninety percent values in the vector that are greater than 25. We can find percentiles of a vector values using quantile function in R.
