Convergence Rate of Extremes for the General Error Distribution

Let {X n , n ≥ 1} be an independent, identically distributed random sequence with each X n having the general error distribution. In this paper we derive the exact uniform convergence rate of the distribution of the maximum to its extreme value limit.
