bgev: Bimodal GEV Distribution with Location Parameter

Density, distribution function, quantile function random generation and estimation of bimodal GEV distribution given in Otiniano et al. (2023) <doi:10.1007/s10651-023-00566-7>. This new generalization of the well-known GEV (Generalized Extreme Value) distribution is useful for modeling heterogeneous bimodal data from different areas.
