The programs were developed for estimation of parameters and testing exponential versus Pareto distribution during our work on hydrologic extremes. See Kozubowski, T.J., A.K. Panorska, F. Qeadan, and A. Gershunov (2007) <doi:10.1080/03610910802439121>, and Panorska, A.K., A. Gershunov, and T.J. Kozubowski (2007) <doi:10.1007/978-0-387-34918-3_26>.
