simulate_path-SparreAndersen-method: Simulates a path of a Sparre Andersen model

Description Usage Arguments Value Warning Examples

Description

simulate_path() simulates a path of SparreAndersen model until one of the following conditions is met: (1) the process is ruined, (2) max_time_horizon is achieved, (3) the elapsed time of the simulation is greater than max_simulation_time.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'SparreAndersen'
simulate_path(model, max_time_horizon = NULL,
  max_simulation_time = NULL, seed = NULL)

Arguments

model

an S4 object of SparreAndersen class.

max_time_horizon

a length one numeric vector specifying the maximum time horizon, until with the process will be simulated. Default: Inf.

max_simulation_time

a length one numeric vector indicating the maximum allowed time of simulation. The value should be specified in seconds. Default: Inf.

seed

an optional arbitrary length numeric vector specifying the seed. If provided, the .Random.seed in .GlobalEnv is set to its value.

Value

PathSparreAndersen

Warning

Setting both max_time_horizon and max_simulation_time to Inf might be dangerous. In this case, the only stopping condition is a ruin of the process, which might not happen.
