exp_est: Method of Moments Estimation of Exponential Distribution

In MOM: Estimation and Testing of Hypothesis

Method of Moments Estimation of Exponential Distribution

Description

function to get the method of moment estimate of exponential distribution

Usage

exp_est(data, plot = TRUE, curvecol = "red", ...)

Arguments

data	An object of numeric vector.
plot	logical which controls whether the histogram of the data along with the density curve of the theoretical exponential distribution with the estimated parameters.
curvecol	color of the theoretical density curve
...	additional plotting parameters

Value

the estimated positive rate parameter by the method of moments of the data assuming the underlying distribution is exponential distribution

Examples

exp_est(rexp(1000,rate=0.1))
