Can anyone help me out in fitting a gamma distribution in python? Well, I've got some data : X and Y coordinates, and I want to find the gamma parameters that fit this distribution... In the Scipy doc, it turns out that a fit method actually exists but I don't know how to use it :s.. First, in which format the argument "data" must be, and how can I provide the second argument (the parameters) since that's what I'm looking for?

Generate some gamma data:
import scipy.stats as stats
alpha = 5
loc = 100.5
beta = 22
data = stats.gamma.rvs(alpha, loc=loc, scale=beta, size=10000)
print(data)
# [ 202.36035683 297.23906376 249.53831795 ..., 271.85204096 180.75026301
# 364.60240242]
Here we fit the data to the gamma distribution:
fit_alpha, fit_loc, fit_beta=stats.gamma.fit(data)
print(fit_alpha, fit_loc, fit_beta)
# (5.0833692504230008, 100.08697963283467, 21.739518937816108)
print(alpha, loc, beta)
# (5, 100.5, 22)
