What?

Calculate min and max values according to https://www.data-to-viz.com/caveat/boxplot.html.
Previous values were calculated as if there would always be outliers values.

Why?

Fix #26
Fix #10

How?

Calculate the value for the lower whisker as max(minimum value, q1 - 1.5 * IQR)
Calculate the value for the upper whisker as min(maximum value, q3 + 1.5 * IQR)

Calculate min and max values according to https://www.data-to-viz.com/caveat/boxplot.html.
Previous values were calculated as if there would always be outliers values.
