sn (version 2.1.1)

The Skew-Normal and Related Distributions Such as the Skew-t and the SUN

Description

Build and manipulate probability distributions of the skew-normal family and some related ones, notably the skew-t and the SUN families. For the skew-normal and the skew-t distributions, statistical methods are provided for data fitting and model diagnostics, in the univariate and the multivariate case.
