I test the  10% percentile for {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}, whch alteryx gives 1.8, while it should be 1.
According the help, it should return the value of the target row, which shall not result any decimal in this case.

You are right @Qiu - it seems to be a continuous percentile rather than a discrete percentile.

I think you point out the cause. Thanks!
