Creation of a random dataset

Description

A function to create a dataset containing :

• a ID column containing ID from 1 to the size

• normally distributed variables (if NULL, no column)

• factors variables with the levels given by list input (if NULL, no column)

• Booleans with binomial distributions with list input (if NULL, no column)

Usage

create_df_rd(
  size = 10,
  seed = NULL,
  numerics = NULL,
  booleans = NULL,
  categories = NULL
)

Arguments

size	Integer, number of profiles to create.
seed	Numeric. Seed for reproducibility. If NULL, a seed is randomly created. The default is NA
numerics	List. Normally distributed numeric columns. ID are the names and values are either NULL or a vector of length 2 with mean and std.
booleans	List. Binomial distributed columns. Keys are the names, values are either NULL or a float which is the probability of True values.
categories	List. Multinomial distributed columns. Keys are the names, values are either NULL or a vector of categorical values. The probabilities will be 1/N if a column has N unique values

Value

data.frame that can be tested by check_format_df

Examples

create_df_rd(10,NULL, list("num1" = NULL,"num2" = c(0,1)), list("bool1" = 0.5),list(a = c(1,2,3),b = c("F","M")))
