random.Geometric: Draw a random sample from a Geometric distribution

In distributions3: Probability Distributions as S3 Objects

Draw a random sample from a Geometric distribution

Description

Please see the documentation of Geometric() for some properties of the Geometric distribution, as well as extensive examples showing to how calculate p-values and confidence intervals.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'Geometric'
random(x, n = 1L, drop = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

x	A Geometric object created by a call to Geometric().
n	The number of samples to draw. Defaults to 1L.
drop	logical. Should the result be simplified to a vector if possible?
...	Unused. Unevaluated arguments will generate a warning to catch mispellings or other possible errors.

Value

In case of a single distribution object or n = 1, either a numeric vector of length n (if drop = TRUE, default) or a matrix with n columns (if drop = FALSE).
