fitting distributions with R
Dear all I've got the dataset data:2743;4678;21427;6194;10286;1505;12811;2161;6853;2625;14542;694;11491; ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? 14924;28640;17097;2136;5308;3477;91301;11488;3860;64114;14334 I know from other testing that it should be possible to fit the data with the exponentialdistribution. I tried to get parameterestimates for the exponentialdistribution with R, but as the values of the parameter are very close to 0 i get into troubles. Do you know, what i could do in order to get estimates?How do you choose the starting values? in my opinion it should be around 1/mean(data)....
