Hello,

I'm using the fArma package to estimate Hurst exponent by R/S method. I've
some measurements in the following format:
Call_number  Call_duration

I'm using the following steps. Am new to R, so it would help if someone
could please confirm if my steps are correct.

Further, this method seems to give a value H ~= 0.8 (> 0.5). Is the use of
R/S method to estimate H OK?
