...of some univariate data for which I have derived a theoretical continuous density (pdf). As it is a parametric density, I guess that I should implement myself a new distribution of class AbscontDistributions (as stated in the pdf on "creating new distributions in distr"), and then use MLEstimator() from the distrMod package. Is that correct or is there a simpler way to go? Note that I want to use the distr package because it allows me to implement simply the convolution of my theoretical pdf with some noise distribution that I want to model in the data, this is more difficult with...

Hi I am trying to find a parametric bootstrap confidence interval and when I used the boot function I get zero bias and zero st.error? What could be my mistake? Thank you and take care. Laila [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
