R help - Dec 2006 - Fit Frechet Distribution

Hi everyone,

is there a function to fit a frechet distribution? The only thing I
found is gev.fit from ismev which fits a generalized extreme value
distribution (if shape>1 => Frechet) . Is there a function to only fit
a frechet?

Thank you
Benjamin

A way to solve this problem is transform the three parameters from the
GEV-distribution into Frechet. Have a look at Thomas & Reiss,
Statistical Analysis of Extreme Values, or the thesis of Han Zhongxian,
Actuarial modelling of extremal events... The last is free in the web. I
am myself using the package evd by Alec Stephenson.

Best wishes
