In CausalInference/gfoRmula: Parametric G-Formula

Simulate Truncated Normal Values

Description

This internal function simulates covariate values from a normal distribution truncated on one side.

Usage

predict_trunc_normal(x, mean, est_sd, a, b)

Arguments

x	Integer specifying the number of observations to be simulated.
mean	Numeric scalar specifying the mean of the distribution.
est_sd	Numeric scalar specifying the standard deviation of the distribution.
a	Numeric scalar specifying the lower bound of truncation.
b	Numeric scalar specifying the upper bound of truncation.

Value

Numeric vector of simulated covariate values under the truncated normal distribution.
