rcn: Random Contaminated Normal Deviates

In austinragotzy/mathstat: Introduction to Mathematical Statistics R Package

Description

Generates data sets from a contaminated normal distribution as in Example 4.9.2

Usage

rcn(n = 0, eps = 1e-04, sigma_c = 1)

Arguments

n	Size of random sample to generate
eps	Proportion of contamination
sigma_c	Standard deviation of contaminated component

Details

With probability (1-eps) a deviates are drawn from a standard normal distribution. With probability eps deviates are drawn from a normal distribution with mean 0 and standard devation sigma_c.

Value

n x 1 numeric vector containing the random deviates.
