tidy_normal: Tidy Randomly Generated Gaussian Distribution Tibble

In TidyDensity: Functions for Tidy Analysis and Generation of Random Data

Tidy Randomly Generated Gaussian Distribution Tibble

Description

This function will generate n random points from a Gaussian distribution with a user provided, .mean, .sd - standard deviation and number of random simulations to be produced. The function returns a tibble with the simulation number column the x column which corresponds to the n randomly generated points, the dnorm, pnorm and qnorm data points as well.

The data is returned un-grouped.

The columns that are output are:

• sim_number The current simulation number.

• x The current value of n for the current simulation.

• y The randomly generated data point.

• dx The x value from the stats::density() function.

• dy The y value from the stats::density() function.

• p The values from the resulting p_ function of the distribution family.

• q The values from the resulting q_ function of the distribution family.

Usage

tidy_normal(.n = 50, .mean = 0, .sd = 1, .num_sims = 1)

Arguments

.n	The number of randomly generated points you want.
.mean	The mean of the randomly generated data.
.sd	The standard deviation of the randomly generated data.
.num_sims	The number of randomly generated simulations you want.

Details

This function uses the underlying stats::rnorm(), stats::pnorm(), and stats::qnorm() functions to generate data from the given parameters. For more information please see stats::rnorm()

Value

A tibble of randomly generated data.
