Estimate of location and scale parameters of the Gumbel distribution

Description

Calculates the estimates of the location and scale parameters fromn the Gumbel probability plot.

Usage

gumbel.gp(x, n, a)

Arguments

x	a numeric vector of observations.
n	The number of observations is needed if there is right-censoring.
a	the offset fraction to be used; typically in (0,1). See ppoints.

Details

gumbel.gp obtains the estimates of the location and scale parameters using the intercept and slope estimates from the Gumbel probability plot.
