abstract: Implements the four-parameter Beta-Danish distribution and its three-parameter
  submodel for survival and reliability analysis, based on Ahmad and Danish (2025)
  <https://doi.org/10.2478/jamsi-2025-0010>. Provides functions for density, distribution,
  quantile, hazard, and random generation. Includes maximum likelihood estimation
  for complete and right-censored data, goodness-of-fit assessment, comparison with
  standard lifetime distributions, and publication-quality visualizations. Advanced
  modules support Accelerated Failure Time (AFT) regression, mixture and promotion-time
  cure models, and competing risks analysis.
