midrank

std.stats.midrank · Level L1

Midranks, 1 for the smallest value, with tied values sharing the average of the ranks they span. Each value's midrank is the number of values below it plus (the number equal to it + 1)/2, counted by exact comparisons of every pair.

rᵢ = #{j : xⱼ < xᵢ} + (#{j : xⱼ = xᵢ} + 1)/2

Signature

midrank(x: f64[n]) → f64[n]

Structure

The function as NOVA stores it: one box per input, operation and output, and arrows that carry values. A double border marks another library function this one runs — called once, or by Scan once per element; select it to open that function.

Verification

  • Signature proven by NOVA’s shape solver, for every size.
  • Equal to the reference sort, then give each run of equal values the average of its ranks in exact rational arithmetic, on all 40 test cases.
  • All 168 float64 results are exact: the error is zero.
  • Interpreter and NumPy backend return bit-identical results.

The semantic hash of the graph. It changes when the program changes, and never when only its documentation does.

Needs
no capability: a pure function

Through NOVA’s control layer, the symbol launches this function only while the program still matches what it pins: a change to this graph, or to any graph it reaches, needs a migration first.
