rUnifDS | R Documentation |
primary serverside assign function called by ds.rUnif
rUnifDS(n, min = 0, max = 1, force.output.to.k.decimal.places = 9)
n |
length of the pseudorandom number vector to be generated as specified by the argument <samp.size> in the function ds.rUnif |
min |
a numeric scalar specifying the minimum of the range across which the random numbers will be generated in each source. Specified directly by the min argument in ds.rUnif. May be a scalar or a vector allowing the min to vary from observation to observation. |
max |
a numeric scalar specifying the maximum of the range across which the random numbers will be generated in each source. Specified directly by the max argument in ds.rUnif. May be a scalar or a vector allowing the min to vary from observation to observation. |
force.output.to.k.decimal.places |
scalar integer. Forces the output random number vector to have k decimal places. If 0 rounds it coerces decimal random number output to integer, a k in range 1-8 forces output to have k decimal places. If k = 9, no rounding occurs of native output. Default=9. Value specified by <force.output.to.k.decimal.places> argument in ds.rUnif |
Generates the vector of pseudorandom numbers from a uniform distribution in each data source as specified by the arguments of ds.rUnif. This serverside function is effectively the same as the function runif() in native R and its arguments are the same.
Writes the pseudorandom number vector with the characteristics specified in the function call as a new serverside vector on the data source on which it has been called. Also returns key information to the clientside: the random seed as specified by you in each source + (if requested) the full 626 length random seed vector this generated in each source (see info for the argument <return.full.seed.as.set>). It also returns a vector reporting the length of the pseudorandom vector created in each source.
