Dear Sir,
I am a new user of R and I am doing a tast, which is: find the maximum likelihood estimate of the parameter of Gaussian distribution for generated 100 numbers by using >x=rnorm(100, mean=3, sd=1).
I tried to use following Maximum Likelihood function
fn<-function(x)
(-50*log((sd(x))^2))-50*log(sqrt(2*pi))-(1/2*((mean(x))^2))*(sum((x-(mean(x))^2)), but it did not work.
I am looking for the complete syntax to finish my target task.
Thanks for your help.
Best regards. Edward Sun Germany
