Purpose

Chitest for all distributions.

Synopsis

res = distfit(x,options)

Description

This command will perform the chi-squared test for all supported distributions and then present a list of the supported distributions from the most likely parent distribution to the least likely (along with the associated p-values).The default behavior is to display a figure containing the results. This can be disabled using options.

NOTE: Some distributions will ignore parts of the sample that are not part of the supported range.

INPUTS:

                         x =   The name of a matrix (column vector) in which the sample data is stored.

OUTPUTS:

The return value is a structure with fields:

      dist =   names of candidate distributions.

      pval =   p-value associated with the test statistic.

Options:

          name :  'options', name indicating that this is an options structure,

         plots :   [ 'none' | {'final'} ]  governs level of plotting,
