**Abstract**
In research and statistics projects, if we know the form of the
regression, parametric inferences often perform better than semiparametric
inferences and nonparametric inferences. In this literature, we give an
algorithm of parametric maximum likelihood estimator(MLE) under the
uniform distribution with linear regression data. We also give some
examples which the Newton Raphson(NR) method may not work but the MLE can
be computed by our algorithm. Moreover, we propose diagnostic plotting
method and test to a data set.
