Overview

About

Maintained by Phil Novack-GottshallFirst published 2016-03-195 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Implements the Lilliefors-corrected Kolmogorov-Smirnov test for use in goodness-of-fit tests, suitable when population parameters are unknown and must be estimated by sample statistics. P-values are estimated by simulation. Can be used with a variety of continuous distributions, including normal, lognormal, univariate mixtures of normals, uniform, loguniform, exponential, gamma, and Weibull distributions. Functions to generate random numbers and calculate density, distribution, and quantile functions are provided for use with the log uniform and mixture distributions.
