Calculate summary statistics: quartiles

First Quartile: =QUARTILE(B1:B10,1)

Second Quartile: =QUARTILE(B1:B10,2)

Third Quartile: =QUARTILE(B1:B10,3)

where B1:B10 is the range of cells containing numerical data.

Note: Excel calculates quartiles differently to the usual method of splitting the data into 25% lots.
