Hello! I am wondering if there is a function in R that returns quantiles of a weighted sample, i.e., a set of values, each coming with a different weight. The function quantile() does that only for the case when the weights are all equal. In other words, I am looking for a quantile function that applies to a discrete distribution specified by values and their probabilities. Thanks in advance.
