 In this paper, we derived probability density function (pdf) for the order statistics from eponential power distribution (EPD). The distribution is flexible at the tail region, because of the presence of shape parameter, which regulates the thickness of the tail. The first moment of the obtained distribution of the order statistics from EPD is presented as well as other measures of central tendencies. This results generalized the results on order statistics from the Laplace distribution and also the results obtained by Arnold, Balakrishnan and Nagaraja on order statistics from normal distribution.

We introduce an alternative skew-slash distribution by using the scale mixture of the exponential power distribution. We derive the properties of this distribution and estimate its parameter by Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian methods. By a simulation study we compute the mentioned estimators and their mean square errors, and we provide an example on real data to demonstrate the modeling strength of the new distribution.
