Dear All, Is there any existing package or direct function in R / S-plus that calculates moments (raw or central); the usual measures of skewness and kurtosis, and/or pearsonian k criterion? Thank you for your time. ---------------------------------- Mohammad Ehsanul Karim Web: http://snipurl.com/ehsan ISRT, University of Dhaka, BD
Have you tried RSiteSearch("skewness") and

The "fBasics" package has functions for that, as do other packages.
