Hi!
I am very new to Mathematica and I am failing in trying to do
something very simple.
I am have the following data:
x = {8, 36, 74, 96, 123, 152, 201, 269, 415, 460, 444, 579, 711, 731,
602, 364, 151};
Which is a curve, similar to PDF function of Beta distribution:
ListLinePlot[x]
And I am trying to fit it to:
PDF[BetaDistribution[\[Alpha], \[Beta]], x
finding Alpha and Beta values.
I will appreciate it somebody can give me a hint how to do this
properly using FindFit or
any other means. I am too embarrassed to post my modest attempts here,
but trust
me, I've spent few hours trying before posting :)
Vadim
