1. Gamma distribution is characterized by two parameters: Shape and scale.
2. For a given data, we can estimate shape and scale using Maximum likelihood or Method of Moments.
3. In this code, we use Method of Moments to estimate these parameters.
4. If plotit == 1, this function plots the histogram of the data along with the fit.
5. Distributions are normalized using matlab inbuilt trapz command.
