title: fit a skewed t-distribution or normal distribution in Matlab
body: <p>I have a dataset that I know for sure that has some sort of skewness (and potentially excess kurtosis). I would like to fit this dataset to some sort of distribution, and I thought the most simplistic is to have a skewed student's t-distribution or skewed normal distribution. What sort of distribution in Matlab can I fit the data to?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!
