Off topic:simple statistics of column values in different rows

Question

[waqasnayab]

Hi,

I'm wondering is there any unix command / tool to output mean, median, standard deviation, min, max, quartiles zones, etc of specific values grouped in a column:

38.35
37.42
36.64
36.56
36.28
36.78
36.98
36.52
36.17
35.00
34.84
35.24
35.86
36.02
35.84
36.46
36.42
36.49
36.30
36.16

for example, simple statistics of all values occurring line3-7 (36.64, 36.56, 36.28, 36.78, 36.98) simple statistics of all values occurring line10-16 (35.00, 34.84, 35.24, 35.86, 36.02, 35.84, 36.46).

Thanks,

Waqas.
