Book: changes by pedram in magnitude quantile surface brightness
Until now: Pedram has used mang commit messages for his changes.
With this commit: we have used just one changes instead of them.

In @ref{Quantifying signal in a tile} we showed that when our distribution is
skewed, the standard deviation is not defined at all, because the distribution
is not Gaussian.
