SYNOPSIS

use Statistics::Lmoments qw(:all);

my @x = (..data here..);

# data needs to be sorted from smallest to largest

@x = sort {$a<=>$b} @x;

# calculate the "unbiased" first 5 L-moments

$xmom = sam('lmu',\@x, 5);

foreach (@distributions) {
    next if /^KAP/;
    my $para = pel($_,$xmom);
#   @$para is now the estimated parameter vector
#   for the specified distribution 
    my $x = 100;
    my $F = cdf($_,$x,$para);
#   $F is now the value of the cdf at 100 for this distribution
}
