The ''Arvind'' distribution is a flexible single-parameter continuous distribution on the positive real line characterised by a polynomial numerator with Gaussian-type decay. The package provides complete distribution functions (darvind(), parvind(), qarvind(), rarvind()), maximum likelihood estimation via fit_arvind_mle(), and five model-fitting routines: Random Walk on Coefficients via fit_rw1(), Time-Varying Coefficient Linear Model via fit_tvlm(), Simulation-Extrapolation via fit_simex(), Mixed-Effects Regression via fit_mixed(), and Regime-Switching Hidden Markov Model via fit_hmm(). Additionally provides Monte Carlo forecasting with prediction intervals via forecast_arvind(), comprehensive goodness-of-fit diagnostics (21 metrics and 25 plots) via diagnostics_arvind() and plot_arvind(), k-fold and rolling-window cross-validation via cv_arvind(), and unified model comparison via summary_arvind().
