Definition: Returns the value of the xx th peak that is the largest by area in a histogram.

parameter). The center of the n
th ranked peak (the point where the area to the
left is equal to the area to the right), where n is selected by you, is then
returned as xapk.

leftmost peak, although higher, is ranked second in area (2). The lowest peak
is also the smallest in area (3).
