@Arguments = ifile1 ifile2 ifile3 ofile
@Operators = yseaspctl

@BeginDescription
This operator writes a certain percentile of each season in @file{ifile1} to @file{ofile}.
The algorithm uses histograms with minimum and maximum bounds given in
@file{ifile2} and @file{ifile3}, respectively. The default number of
histogram bins is 101. The default can be overridden by setting the
environment variable @env{CDO_PCTL_NBINS} to a different value. The files
@file{ifile2} and @file{ifile3} should be the result of corresponding
@mod{yseasmin} and @mod{yseasmax} operations, respectively.
The date information in an output field is the date of the last
contributing input field.

Sets the number of histogram bins. The default number is 101.

@BeginExample
To compute the seasonal 90th percentile over all input years use:
@BeginVerbatim
   cdo yseasmin ifile minfile
   cdo yseasmax ifile maxfile
   cdo yseaspctl,90 ifile minfile maxfile ofile
@EndVerbatim
Or shorter using operator piping:
@BeginVerbatim
   cdo yseaspctl,90 ifile -yseasmin ifile -yseasmax ifile ofile
@EndVerbatim
