There is no context here. But even assuming that r(p1) and r(p99) are available from some previous command, the quote characters here are incorrect -- you would need left single quotes as opening delimiters -- and one parenthesis is unmatched.

This is not to be construed as supporting trimming distribution tails, in my view a horrible method.
