par2lmom {lmomco}R Documentation

Convert the Parameters of a Distribution to the L-moments

Description

This function converts the parameters of a distribution to the L-moment as represented in an L-moment object. This function dispatches to lmomCCC where CCC represents the three character distribution identifier: cau, exp, gam, gev, gld, glo, gno, gpa, gum, kap, nor, pe3, ray, revgum, wak, and wei. The conversion of parameters to TL-moments (TLmoms) is not supported. Specific use of functions such as lmomTLgld or lmomTLgpa for the TL-moments of the Generalized Lambda and Generalized Pareto distributions is required.

Usage

Arguments
