lnHyperPars R Documentation
Convert mean and standard deviation into log-normal distribution parameters
Description
lnHyperPars is a function for calculating parameters for a log-normal distribution, such that the distribution yields desired mean and standard deviation.
Used for sampling the a-parameter.
Usage
lnHyperPars(mean, sd)
Arguments
mean
the desired mean.
sd
the desired standard deviation.
Value
lnHyperPars returns two values. These can be directly supplied to rlnorm.
Examples
pars <- lnHyperPars(2, 4)
x <- rlnorm(1000000, pars[1], pars[2])
mean(x) # close to 2
sd(x) # close to 4
