StatsEValuePDF

StatsEValuePDF (x, µ, σ)

The StatsEValuePDF function returns the extreme-value (type I, Gumbel) probability distribution function

f(x;μ,σ)=1σexp(xμσ)exp(exp(xμσ)),\displaystyle f(x ; \mu, \sigma)=\frac{1}{\sigma} \exp \left(\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\right) \exp \left(-\exp \left(\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\right)\right),

where σ > 0. This is also known as the "minimum" form or distribution of the smallest extreme. To obtain the distribution of the largest extreme reverse the sign of σ.
