fitting a distribution to a ecdf plot
Dear all, I need to plot an cumulative distribution plot of a variable and then to fit a distribution to that, probably a weibull or lognormal. I have plotted the ecdf as > plot(ecdf(x)) but I haven't managed to fit the distribution. I have as well attached the data. I would appreciate if you could help me on that. Thank you.
