Percentile from sorted array

Code reviewDatabases & SQLSenior–Staff~18 min

Review this Go function that returns the p-th percentile latency from a sorted slice (e.g. p=95 for p95).

`sorted` is ascending and non-empty; `p` is in [0, 100].

What a strong answer looks like

Separate real bugs from style. Rank issues by severity, point at the root cause rather than the symptom, and suggest a concrete fix, specific and kind.

Which questions mattered is sealed until you submit. Telling you now would just be handing over the edge cases.
