R Documentation

Prepares the draws

Description

In a model using simulation, we need to prepare a set of random draws to use when simulating/approximating the distributions/integrals. The function is a convenient wrapper around the function make_draws.

Usage

prepare_draws(n_id, n_ct, n_draws, type, rpar, seed)

Arguments

`n_id`	An integer giving the nubmer of respondents
`n_ct`	An integer giving the number of choice situations
`n_draws`	An integer giving the number of draws per individual
`type`	A character string giving the type of draws to use
`rpar`	A named list giving the type of distribution
`seed`	An integer giving the seed to change the scrambling of the sobol sequence

Details

Depending on the model options, the function will transform the supplied uniform draws to either standard uniform, standard normal or standard triangular. It is up to the user to specify the correct distributions in the log-likelihood function.
