Hi, I would like to use the quantile function, but I have some doubts to
choose the value of "type" parameter. Does this depend on the
shape/structure of my distribution? I cannot unde rstand what mean the
expressions  Discontinuous sample quantile and Continuous sample quantile,
respectively. 
My distributions (histograms) sometimes have some "holes", that is I have
some bins with zero samples. 

Someone can help me, please?

thank you!
