Your way of doing percentiles is very advanced. I'm facing the problem at the moment, which is to calculate rolling min and max, without looping trough the whole window. Say I have 1 milion numbers, and I want to calculate min and max for each window of 1000 numbers? Hi John,

I see you have a lot of interest in fast computations. Your way of doing percentiles is very advanced.

I’m facing the problem at the moment, which is to calculate rolling min and max, without looping trough the whole window. Say I have 1 milion numbers, and I want to calculate min and max for each window of 1000 numbers?
