| For computing different point estimates such as method of moment and maximum like-lihood estimates and different interval estimates (classical confidence interval, unbi-ased confidence interval, HPD interval), we may deal with the equations which need be solved numerically. In this paper, some numerical methods for solving these type of equations are reviewed in S-PLUS package. Various examples are presented to illus-trate the methods described. |
