Dear R helpers, I have a data of 2102 observations (consisting of 0's also), to which I am trying to fit Normal distribution using "lmom" pacakage. If I use Excel, its easy to estimate the parameters of Normal distribution as simple mean and standard devaition. The results I get if I use teh excel are as Parameters of Normal distribution :- Mean = 22986.44 and standard deviation = 223452.88 However, if I use the R code using the lmom package, I get the mean as 22986.39 and standard deviation as 39029.79. Regards Maithili My R code is as follows. (Actually its a two line code, but since I am representing data using 'c', the code looks too big.) library(lmom) amounts <- c(0,0,18561.9,0,0,0,34400,0,0,0,0,2190,0,0,0,0,60000,0,0,0,19583,0,0,0,109872.87,0,0,0,0,0,0,1244,0,0,25150,0,500,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,100,0,0,0,0,0,0,500,41533.94,1365,0,0,11400,0,0,0,0,0,10000,0,0,11000,0,0,0,0,0,0,11600,0,0,0,21530,0,2000,0,10100,4500,5000,0,0,10000,0,28667,0,0,0,45000,0,0,0,0,0,100,0,0,2100,0,0,0,1000,0,0,0,0,17000,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,140270,2000,0,1900678.25,19450,0,0,4400,0,0,0,6136,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,20900,0,0,525,8306,0,0,0,0,0,9497,0,291264,0,0,0,0,0,2825,0,0,0,0,0,75000,0,0,0,0,0,6000,4300,3062,0,0,159649,0,0,61329,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,214816,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1200,0,0,10364,0,0,0,300,0,0,0,0,0,156888,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,200,0,1164.55,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,540,0,0,0,460.52,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,500,0,0,0,0,540,500,15000,0,0,0,0,6400,0,0,0,2900,7200,0,0,0,0,400,0,800,0,500,0,0,0,0,0,0,13550,0,0,40410,100,0,0,0,0,5818,50700,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,4800,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,500,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,133.29,0,5750,100,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,2116,3165.7
