Hi, I would like to know how to configure R so that I can enter some values and compute the Muximum likelihood estimation of my data. Thanks Victor.

I do not know the definition of "Maximum likelihood estimation of [...] data".

Excellent intro to your > question...Yes, thanks. I know maximum likelihood estimation, but I do not know what the original questioner means with "compute the Muximum likelihood estimation of my data." I tried to point out that we need some more details - maybe using a too subtle way in this case ...
