## @deftypefn {Function File} {@var{paramhat}, @var{paramci} =} gevfit_lmom (@var{data})
## Find an estimator (@var{paramhat}) of the generalized extreme value (GEV) distribution fitting @var{data} using the method of L-moments.

## @subheading Arguments
##
## @itemize @bullet
## @item
## @var{data} is the vector of given values.

## @subheading Return values
##
## @itemize @bullet
## @item
## @var{parmhat} is the 3-parameter maximum-likelihood parameter vector [@var{k}; @var{sigma}; @var{mu}], where @var{k} is the shape parameter of the GEV distribution, @var{sigma} is the scale parameter of the GEV distribution, and @var{mu} is the location parameter of the GEV distribution.
## @item
## @var{paramci} has the approximate 95% confidence intervals of the parameter values (currently not implemented).
