In louisaslett/durham-Rpkg: Durham University R Package

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) Examples

Calculates the log-likelihood of the given data from the Gumbel distribution for one or more values of the parameters

1	Lgumbel(a, b, x=seaheight)

`a`	Parameter a of the Gumbel distribution
`b`	Parameter a of the Gumbel distribution
`x`	Data, defaults to seaheights

Returns a vector of log-likelihood values
