FitGev: Fit Generalized extreme value (GEV) distribution

In martindurocher/floodRFA: A R-package for regional frequency of floods

Description

Fit a GEV distribution to data using either the maximum likelihood or the generalized maximum likelihood method of Martins and Stedingers (2000)

Usage

FitGev(x, varcov = TRUE, method = "gml", method.optim = "BFGS", ...)

Arguments

x	Vector of sample.
varcov	Logical. Should the covariance matrix be computed.
method	Method of estimation. Either 'ml' or 'gml'.
method.optim	Optimisation method used by optim
...	Parameter pass to optim
