in thread How to best eliminate values in a list that are outliers

Thanks for the reply! I realize the theory behind what I want to do, but I am not very good at coding so I was more looking for recommendation on what perl commands / modules I can use to do this.

    If you have a good understanding of the theory behind detecting the outliers you should be able to describe a series of steps to detect them. Example data helps, but it is the criteria used to make the decision that needs to be described.

    Once you have the series of steps used to make the decision (pretend you are following the steps by hand using pen and paper), you should then be able to code the solution, or at least get some help coding it.

    Premature optimization is the root of all job security
