Which version of R and the MASS library? It worked for me just now with R 1.8.1:

> library(MASS)
> fitdistr(rnorm(100),"Normal",start=list(mean=0,sd=1))
mean sd 0.03760724 0.97053743
(0.09705374) (0.06862975)


hope this helps. spencer graves

Hi,

I'm trying fitdistr but I'm getting some errors



fitdistr(rnorm(100),"Normal")


Error in fitdistr(rnorm(100), "Normal") : 'start' must be a named list


fitdistr(rnorm(100),"Normal",start=list(mean=0,sd=1))


Error in fitdistr(rnorm(100), "Normal", start = list(mean = 0, sd = 1))
:
       supplying pars for the Normal is not supported


What is the problem here ? Am I doing something wrong ?


Regards

EJ
