rmixnorm: Draw from a mixture of normals.

In dcgerard/vicar: Various Ideas for Confounder Adjustment in Regression

Description

Draw from a mean zero mixture of normals given mixing proportions, mixing standard deviations, and mixing means.

Usage

rmixnorm(n, pi_vals, sd_seq, mean_seq = rep(0, length(pi_vals)))

Arguments

n	An integer. The number of samples to draw.
pi_vals	A vector length M. The mixing proportions.
sd_seq	A vector of length M. The mixing standard deviations.
mean_seq	A vector of length M. The mixing means.

Details

Given mixing proportions pi_vals, and mixing standard deviations (not variances) sd_seq, this function will draw p samples from the mean zero mixture of normals.

Value

A vector of length p that are drawn from the mean zero mixture of normals.
