Handbook of fitting statistical distributions with R

Strengthened by examples taken from the scientific literature, this handbook provides statisticians and researchers across the physical and social scienceswith cutting-edge methods for fitting continuous probability distributions. It presents families with wide-ranging applicability, including Johnson¿s system, kappa distribution, and generalized lambda distribution. By providing the necessary R programs, the book enables practitioners to implement the techniques using R computer code. To cover distribution method combinations not included in the book¿s extensive tables, the authors delve into the application of computational algorithms and attendant approximation errors.
