[R] the standard error of the quantile

[Frank Harrell]

In small to moderate sample sizes, the Harrell-Davis quantile estimator is
more accurate than the ordinary sample quantile, and there is a good
standard error estimator for it using U-statistics.  See the hdquantile
function in the Hmisc package.
