Abstract: This paper proposes a new distribution, called as Zeghdoudi distribution (ZD). Various statistical properties of moment method and maximum likelihood estimation is established. An application of the model to a real data set is presented finally and compared with the fit attained by some other well-known one and two parameters distributions.

Keywords: Lindley distribution; gamma distribution; maximum-likelihood estimation.
