This solution is dead wrong if you use any other distribution than normal distribution. That is because boxplot() will calculate different values for median and 25/75 percentile than your distibution would produce.
Thank you for the clarification and valuable insight. We recommend the viewers to use only Normal Distribution at 2:54 due to following reason: "In a normal distribution, the median typically aligns closely with the values of the 25th and 75th percentiles (first and third quartiles) as seen in the Box Plot due to the symmetrical nature of the distribution. However, in other distributions, especially skewed ones, the median may not align perfectly with the 25th and 75th percentiles, as they represent different points in the data's distribution."
