random_cor_cov: Generate a random correlation (or covariance) matrix

In dustinfife/qlr: Perform quantitative literature reviews.

Description

Generate a random correlation (or covariance) matrix

Usage

random_cor_cov(size = 6, cors = c("high", "mid", "low"), sds = NULL)

Arguments

size	The number of variables. Defaults to 6.
cors	The size of the correlations between variables. Current options include "high", "mid", and "low". Future iterations may include "toeplitz" and maybe other options
sds	A vector containing the standard deviation of each of the variables. Defaults to NULL, in which case, it randomly generates standard deviations that range from .2 to 10

Value

A list containing

• cor - the randomly generated correlation matrix

• sd - a vector of standard deviations

• cov.mat - the variance/covariance matrix

Examples

random_cor_cov(size=4, cors="low")
random_cor_cov(size=3, cors="mid", sds = c(5,5,5))
