random.sample: Radon sample of n elements
In Echinophoria/DEB_output: Dynamic Energy Budget exploration tools

Description Usage Arguments Value Note Author(s) Examples

create a random sample of n elements for a normal distribution determined by the mean, sd, lower and upper bounds.

1	random.sample(n, mean, sd, lowerBound, upperBound)

`n`	Number of elements to calculate
`mean`	Mean of the distribution
`sd`	Standard deviation of the distribution
`lowerBound`	minimum value of the distribution
`upperBound`	maximum value of the distribution

na vector containing n values with the mean and sd of the given distribution and bounded by the upper and lower bounds given

Distribution is assumed to be normal Useful when need to generate data for simulations following the descriptors of a given population.
