Hello
I need to fit a distribution to a histogram data set. I have read
Ricci's guide to distribution fitting, and am ready to begin
experimenting with the techniques it mentions, but I am uncertain how to
get my data in the format he uses.
My problem is that my data is binned. So for example my data is in
the following format
#lb ub count
0 1 4
1 2 7
2 3 2
Indicating that I have 4 observations between 0 and 1, 7 obs between 1
and 2, and 2 obs between 2 and 3. I assume it should be simple to
somehow transform the dataset to a vector such as:
1
1
1
1
2
2
2
2
2
2
3
3
But I don't know how to do that in R. I have a decent amount of
datasets I will want to perform this distribution fitting analysis, so
if there is a better way, I'm game to learn about it. So any help is
welcome.
Cheers,
Brad
