[hillPlot] - 
ogevSim
    
returns a vector of data points from the simulated series.
    
gevFit
    
returns an object of class gev describing the fit.
    
print.summary
    
prints a report of the parameter fit.
    
summary
    
performs diagnostic analysis. The method provides two different 
    residual plots for assessing the fitted GEV model.  
    
gevrlevelPlot
    
returns a vector containing the lower 95% bound of the confidence 
    interval, the estimated return level and the upper 95% bound. 
    
hillPlot
    
displays a plot.
    
shaparmPlot 
    
returns a list with one or two entries, depending on the
    selection of the input variable both.tails. The two 
    entries upper and lower determine the position of 
    the tail. Each of the two variables is again a list with entries 
    pickands, hill, and dehaan. If one of the 
    three methods will be discarded the printout will display zeroes.gevFit and gumbelFit estimate the parameters either 
    by the probability weighted moment method, method="pwm" or 
    by maximum log likelihood estimation method="mle". The 
    summary method produces diagnostic plots for fitted GEV or Gumbel 
    models.
    
Methods:
    
print.gev, plot.gev and summary.gev are
    print, plot, and summary methods for a fitted object of class 
    gev. Concerning the summary method, the data are 
    converted to unit exponentially distributed residuals under null 
    hypothesis that GEV fits. Two diagnostics for iid exponential data 
    are offered. The plot method provides two different residual plots 
    for assessing the fitted GEV model. Two diagnostics for 
    iid exponential data are offered. 
    
Return Level Plot:
    
gevrlevelPlot calculates and plots the k-block return level 
    and 95% confidence interval based on a GEV model for block maxima, 
    where k is specified by the user. The k-block return level 
    is that level exceeded once every k blocks, on average. The 
    GEV likelihood is reparameterized in terms of the unknown return 
    level and profile likelihood arguments are used to construct a 
    confidence interval. 
    
Hill Plot:
    
The function hillPlot investigates the shape parameter and 
    plots the Hill estimate of the tail index of heavy-tailed data, or 
    of an associated quantile estimate. This plot is usually calculated 
    from the alpha perspective. For a generalized Pareto analysis of 
    heavy-tailed data using the gpdFit function, it helps to 
    plot the Hill estimates for xi. 
    
Shape Parameter Plot:
    
The function shaparmPlot investigates the shape parameter and 
    plots for the upper and lower tails the shape parameter as a function 
    of the taildepth. Three approaches are considered, the Pickands 
    estimator, the Hill estimator, and the
    Decker-Einmal-deHaan estimator.## Load Data:
