Requirements

Your task is to develop a simple statistical tool for analysing historical weather records from Lincolnshire. The provided data files include records of air temperature collected over a period of more than 80 years from five weather stations in Lincolnshire: Barkston Heath, Scampton, Waddington, Cranwell and Coningsby. Your tool should be able to load the provided dataset and perform statistical summaries of temperature including the min, max and average values, and standard deviation. The provided summaries should be performed on the entire dataset regardless their acquisition time and location. For additional credit, you can also consider the median statistic and its 1st and 3rd quartiles (i.e. 25th and 75th percentiles) which will require a development of a suitable sorting algorithm.
