Percentile

Use Array.filter() to calculate how many numbers are below the value and how many are the same value and apply the percentile formula.

const percentile = (arr, val) =>
  100 * (arr.filter(v => v < val).length + 0.5 * arr.filter(v => v === val).length) / arr.length;
// percentile([1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10], 6) -> 55
