4-
``quantile`` and ``percentile`` now have 13 linear interpolation methods,
5-
nine of which can be found in the scientific literature.
6-
The remaining methods are NumPy specific and are kept for backwards
7-
compatibility. The default is "inclusive" (method 7), whose behavior is equivalent
8-
to the former default "linear".
4+
``quantile`` and ``percentile`` now have have a ``method=``
5+
keyword argument supporting 13 different methods.
6+
This replaces the ``interpolation=`` keyword argument.
7+
8+
The methods are now aligned with nine methods which can be
9+
found in scientific literature and the R language.
10+
The remaining methods are the previous discontinuous variations
11+
of the default "linear" one.

Please see the documentation of `numpy.percentile` for more information.
