The vertical edge on the left of the box marks the lower (1st) quartile.

The vertical edge on the right of the box marks the upper (3rd) quartile.

The median (or 2nd quartile) is indicated by the vertical line in the middle of the box.

The box may be drawn vertically in which case the bottom of the box is the lower (1st) quartile, the top of the box is the upper (3rd) quartile and the band in the middle is the 2nd quartile (or median).

The whiskers on the end of the box vary.
