rnorm_truncated | R Documentation |
rnorm_truncated
generates random numbers from a normal distribution
using rnorm(), but forced to remain within the specified low/high bounds. All
proposals outside the boundaries (exclusive) are discarded, and the sampling
is repeated until there are enough values within the specified range. Fully
vectorized.
rnorm_truncated(
n = 1,
mean = 0,
sd = 1,
low = NULL,
high = NULL,
roundToInteger = FALSE,
invalidArgAction = c("adjust", "abort", "ignore")[1]
)
n |
the number of values to return |
mean |
the mean of the normal distribution from which values are generated (vector of length 1 or n) |
sd |
the standard deviation of the normal distribution from which values are generated (vector of length 1 or n) |
low , high |
exclusive lower and upper bounds ((vectors of length 1 or n)) |
roundToInteger |
boolean vector of length 1 or n. If TRUE, the corresponding value is rounded to the nearest integer. |
invalidArgAction |
what to do if an argument is invalid or outside the
range in |
A vector of length n.
soundgen:::rnorm_truncated(n = 3, mean = 10, sd = 5, low = 7, high = NULL,
roundToInteger = c(TRUE, FALSE, FALSE))
soundgen:::rnorm_truncated(n = 9, mean = c(10, 50, 100), sd = c(5, 0, 20),
roundToInteger = TRUE) # vectorized
# in case of conflicts between mean and bounds, either adjust the mean:
soundgen:::rnorm_truncated(n = 3, mean = 10, sd = .1,
low = c(15, 0, 0), high = c(100, 100, 8), invalidArgAction = 'adjust')
#... or ignore the boundaries
soundgen:::rnorm_truncated(n = 3, mean = 10, sd = .1,
low = c(15, 0, 0), high = c(100, 100, 8), invalidArgAction = 'ignore')
