Maximum instantaneous discharges of a river from 1926 to 1951are given in Table. First, determine average, variance, skewness,PDF and CDF of this time-series. Secondly, fit probabilitydistributions of exponential, normal and Pearson and find out whichone is the better. Calculate the flood discharges during the next5, 10 and 50 years.
