NAME

       gblafit - Fit a Laplace density

SYNOPSIS

       gblafit [options] [files]

DESCRIPTION

       Fit  Laplace density. Read data from files or from standard input.  With output option '4'
       prints the log-likelihood as a function of m

       input.

              Options: -O  output type (default 0)

       0      parameters m a and negative log-likelihood

       1      the estimated distribution function computed on the provided points

       2      the estimated density function computed on the provided points

       3      parameters m, a and their standard errors and correlations

       4      log-likelihood profile

       -m     the mode is not estimated but is set to the value provided

       -x     initial value of m or plot range if output type is '4' (default 0)

       -n     number of plotted points if output type is '4' (default 10)

EXAMPLES

       gblafit -m 1 <file
              estimate a with m=1

       gblafit -O 4 -x -1,1 <file
              print the log-likelihood on a regular grid from -1 to 1. The grid has 10 points.
