Calculates the percentage of numbers in the given array that are less or equal to the given value.

||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
const percentile = (arr, val) =>
|
||||
(100 * arr.reduce((acc, v) => acc + (v < val ? 1 : 0) + (v === val ? 0.5 : 0), 0)) / arr.length;
|
||||
(100 *
|
||||
arr.reduce(
|
||||
(acc, v) => acc + (v < val ? 1 : 0) + (v === val ? 0.5 : 0),

0
