What have you tried so far - can you explain? "fitdistrplus" package is the default package for fitting distributions.
It is a contributed packages, and perhaps it is a good one (I do not know), but calling it the *default* ... who defined that? Best, Uwe Ligges

We are doing a project for a statistical class in and we are looking at world record times in different running events over time. We are trying to fit the data with a negative exponential but we just cant seem to get a function that works properly. we have on our x-axis the date and on the y-axis the time(in seconds). So as you can imagine, the times have decreased and appear to be approaching a limit. Any ideas for a nls function that would work for us would be greatly appreciated.
