Description Usage Arguments Value References Examples
This function implements pseudo-random number generation for a standard-t distribution with pdf
f(x|ν)=\frac{Γ(\frac{ν+1}{2})}{Γ(\frac{ν}{2})√{νπ}}(1+\frac{x^2}{ν})^{-(ν+1)/2}
for -∞ < x < ∞ where ν is the degrees of freedom.

nrep |
Number of data points to generate. |
dof |
Degrees of freedom of the desired t distribution. |
A list of length five containing generated data, the theoretical mean, the empirical mean, the theoretical variance, and the empirical variance with names y, theo.mean, emp.mean, theo.var, and emp.var, respectively.
