R help - Jun 2004 - Can R handle twin peaks - normal distribution

Hi R Users,

Sorry if its out of topic. I would like to ask you about twin peaks -
normal distribution. How R can handle it, any example to explain it in
R.

Thanks,

regards,

Unung

It's not off-topic but you didn't really say what you want
(read the posting guide as indicated in the last line of this message!)
so I guess "Twin Peaks - Normal" means a mixture of two normal
distributions.

There's the small 
package  'nor1mix'  for univariate normal mixtures plotting, RNG
etc, and the much more extensive package
'mclust' which allows to *estimate* multivariate (now including
uni-variate) normal mixture model parameters.

Is it what you've wanted?
