_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     This function estimates the L-moments of the Weibull distribution
     given the parameters (zeta, beta, and delta) from 'parwei'. The
     Weibull distribution is a reverse Generalized Extreme Value
     distribution.  As result, the Generalized Extreme Value algorithms
     ('lmomgev') are used for computation of the L-moments of the
     Weibull in this package (see 'parwei').

_U_s_a_g_e:

     lmomwei(para)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

    para: The parameters of the distribution.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     An R 'list' is returned.

      L1: Arithmetic mean.

      L2: L-scale-analogous to standard deviation.

     LCV: coefficient of L-variation-analogous to coefficient of
          variation.

    TAU3: The third L-moment ratio or L-skew-analogous to skew.

    TAU4: The fourth L-moment ratio or L-kurtosis-analogous to
          kurtosis.

    TAU5: The fifth L-moment ratio.

      L3: The third L-moment.

      L4: The fourth L-moment.

      L5: The fifth L-moment.

  source: An attribute identifying the computational  source of the
          L-moments: "lmomwei".
