BoxPlot

Chart
Quartile boxes, whiskers, and outlier dots per category, computed by the chart from raw samples: quartiles by linear interpolation, whiskers at the most extreme data inside the 1.5 IQR fences, outliers beyond them. Scrub a category to flag its five-number summary; each category's summary also folds into the accessible name.
