ollowing parameters.  Because exact
formulas are used, the parameters related to optimization that are
available in the `fit` method of other distributions are ignored
here.  The only positional argument accepted is `data`.

Parameters
----------
data : array_like
    Data to use in calculating the maximum likelihood estimate.
floc : float, optional
    Hold the location parameter fixed to the specified value.
fscale : float, optional
    Hold the scale parameter fixed to the specified value.

Returns
-------
loc, scale : float
    Maximum likelihood estimates for the location and scale.

Notes
-----
An error is raised if `floc` is given and any values in `data` are
less than `floc`, or if `fscale` is given and `fscale` is less
than ``data.max() - data.min()``.  An error is also raised if both
`floc` and `fscale` are given.

Examples
--------
>>> import numpy as np
>>> from scipy.stats import uniform

We'll fit the uniform distribution to `x`:

>>> x = np.array([2, 2.5, 3.1, 9.5, 13.0])

For a uniform distribution MLE, the location is the minimum of the
data, and the scale is the maximum minus the minimum.

>>> loc, scale = uniform.fit(x)
>>> loc
2.0
>>> scale
11.0

If we know the data comes from a uniform distribution where the support
starts at 0, we can use ``floc=0``:

>>> loc, scale = uniform.fit(x, floc=0)
>>> loc
0.0
>>> scale
13.0

Alternatively, if we know the length of the support is 12, we can use
``fscale=12``:

>>> loc, scale = uniform.fit(x, fscale=12)
>>> loc
1.5
>>> scale
12.0

In that last example, the support interval is [1.5, 13.5].  This
solution is not unique.  For example, the distribution with ``loc=2``
and ``scale=12`` has the same likelihood as the one above.  When
`fscale` is given and it is larger than ``data.max() - data.min()``,
the parameters returned by the `fit` method center the support over
the interval ``[data.min(), data.max()]``.
