Dear R Helpers
This is the R code (which I have slightly changed) I got in VGAM package for
estimating the parameters of FRECHET.
_________________________________________________________________
y = rfrechet(n <- 100, shape=exp(exp(0))) # (A)
fit3 = vglm(y ~ 1, frechet3(ilocation=0), trace=TRUE, maxit=155) # (B)
coef(fit3, matrix=TRUE) # (C)
Coef(fit3) # (D)
fitted(fit3)[1:5,] # (E)
mean(y) # (F)
weights(fit3, type="w")[1:5,] # (G)
vcov(fit3) # (H)
f...@extra$location[1:3] # Estimate of the location parameter # (I)
f...@extra$lhsanchor # Anchor Point # (J)
_________________________________________________________________
When I run these commands using R I get following output corresponding to each
command line

My problem is to calculate the estimators of 3 Parameter FRECHET distribution.
Which of the above figures give me estimates of the three parameters of the
FRECHET distribution.
With regards and thanking in advance,
Maithili
