rgenerator: rgenerator

In Esra-K/Stats:

Description

Generates pseudo random numbers using the linear congruential method. First we create a vector to write the generated numbers to it later on. We give the generator a seed value, which is what th d <- as.numeric(Sys.time()) * 1000 line does. Then, in a loop that is executed n times(N is the number of numbers requested), you apdate the value of d to (a*d + c)mod m(It's important to choose the right values for a and d and c) So d is a random number between zero and m-1. The d produced in the i'th loop is stored in the i'th index of the vector. Done.

Usage

rgenerator(x)

Arguments

The only argument, n, is the number of random number you need to get

Value

The return value is a vetor with n elements(i.e. random numbers)

Examples

a <- rgenerator(1000)
a
