In ExtDist: Extending the Range of Functions for Probability Distributions

Parameter Estimation Evaluation.

Description

A function to evaluate the parameter estimation function.

Usage

eval.estimation(
  rdist,
  edist,
  n = 20,
  rep.num = 1000,
  params,
  method = "numerical.MLE"
)

Arguments

rdist	Random variable generating function.
edist	Parameter estimation function.
n	Sample size.
rep.num	Number of replicates.
params	True parameters of the distribution.
method	Estimation method.

Value

A list containing the mean and sd of the estimated parameters.

na.cont returns the number of "na"s that appeared in the parameter estimation.
