             (Genschel and Meeker, 2010, &lt;DOI:10.1080/08982112.2010.503447&gt;) 
             for the estimation of multiple parametric lifetime distributions,  
             as well as the computation of confidence intervals of quantiles and 
             probabilities using the delta method related to Fishers confidence 
             intervals (Meeker and Escobar, 1998, &lt;ISBN:9780471673279&gt;) and the
