Draw Samples with the Desired Properties from a Data Set

Description

draw_sample, functions take a sample of the specified sample size,skewness, and kurtosis form a data set (dist)with or without resampling. Fleishman's power method (doi: 10.1007/BF02293811) was used for the desired skewness and kurtosis level. Therefore, the coefficient of skewness can be chosen between 0 and 3.6. Although the kurtosis coefficient varies for each skewness coefficient and varies from -1.2 and 20. If convenient kurtosis and skew values are not provided, no solutions can be found and an error is given.
