The current implementation supports fitting both continuous and discrete data to a power-law (using both Linear Regression and Maximum Likelihood Estimator method) and calculating the goodness of fit for the fitted power-law. Additionally, there are methods to generate random numbers for power-law, exponential and stretched exponential series. The complete documentation can be found here.
