library("sos"); findFn("{Burr distribution}") turns up useful stuff. http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/library/actuar/html/Burr.html will give you raw moments, which should be convertible to central moments etc. pretty easily. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
