\description{

  S4 class representing fitted distributions.
  
}
\section{Objects from the Class}{
  Objects can be created by calls of the form \code{new("fDISTFIT", ...)}
  but are typically created by functions fitting distributions.

  Slot \code{fit} is a list with components:

  \describe{

    \item{estimate}{
      the point at which the maximum value of the log liklihood 
      function is obtained.
    }
    \item{minimum}{
      the value of the estimated maximum, i.e. the value of the
      log liklihood function.
    }
    \item{code}{
      an integer indicating why the optimization process terminated.
    }
    \item{gradient}{
      the gradient at the estimated maximum.
    }

  }

  The above description of slot \code{fit} is taken from the
  documentation for \code{\link{tFit}}, \code{\link{nFit}} and
  \code{\link{stableFit}}. \strong{TODO:} needs checking and also is it the same for
  other distribution fitting functions.
