lmomwei: L-moments of the Weibull Distribution

Description

This function estimates the L-moments of the Weibull distribution given the parameters ($\zeta$, $\beta$, and $\delta$) from parwei. The Weibull distribution is a reverse Generalized Extreme Value distribution. As result, the Generalized Extreme Value algorithms (lmomgev) are used for computation of the L-moments of the Weibull in this package (see parwei).

Usage

lmomwei(para)

Arguments

para
The parameters of the distribution.

Value

  • An R list is returned.
  • L1Arithmetic mean.
  • L2L-scale---analogous to standard deviation.
  • LCVcoefficient of L-variation---analogous to coefficient of variation.
  • TAU3The third L-moment ratio or L-skew---analogous to skew.
  • TAU4The fourth L-moment ratio or L-kurtosis---analogous to kurtosis.
  • TAU5The fifth L-moment ratio.
  • L3The third L-moment.
  • L4The fourth L-moment.
  • L5The fifth L-moment.
  • sourceAn attribute identifying the computational source of the L-moments: lmomwei.
