Talk:Pareto interpolation

It looks as if the formulas given here find the median of the distribution, given the parameters, rather than the median of a "set of data", as advertised in the first paragraph. A "set of data" would be a finite list of numbers, on which estimates of the parameters would be based, including an estimate of the population media. The article doesn't say how to find that estimate given a finite list of observations. That seems to be promised by the opening sentence. Could someone add that? Michael Hardy 00:51 Mar 28, 2003 (UTC)
