A logistics company trials two different automated dispatch algorithms, Route-Optima and Path-Finder, to manage inner-city courier deliveries. The company records the delivery times, in minutes, for two large groups of couriers over a month-long trial.
Table 1: Median and interquartile range (IQR) of delivery times (minutes)
| Route-Optima | Path-Finder | |
|---|---|---|
| Median delivery time (minutes) | 28.5 | 36.4 |
| Interquartile range (IQR) (minutes) | 14.2 | 5.8 |
Using the data in Table 1, compare the delivery times for the two algorithms.
