.... I am looking for a R function that fit a dataset to common distributions such as Normla, Log-Normal, Poisson, Weibull, and Beta. Basically I am looking for ways to estimate distribution parameters rather than having to write a program for it. Thanks for your help. T. S.

...a beta distribution for a dataset using fitdistr(MASS). I am having difficulties with it because the function tends to fit a distribution with a range of 0 to 1 (I guess). However, my dataset is not! Anytips or tricks will be very much appreciated. Many Thanks. T. S.
