Generates a random vector from a binomial sampling model.
1 | rvbinom(n = 1, size, prob)
|
n |
integer, number of random variables to generate |
size |
integer or integer-valued rv: the number of trials (size of each sample) |
prob |
prior probability of success of each trial (may be constant or an rv object) |
rvbinom
generates a random vector with given length, the distribution
for size and the distribution for the probability of success.
An rv object.

s <- 1 + rvpois(1, lambda=3) # A prior distribution on the 'size' parameter.
rvbinom(1, size=s, prob=0.5) # The 'size' is random.
p <- rvbinom(1, 10, prob=0.5)/10 # Prior probability of success.
rvbinom(1, size=10, prob=p) # Now the probability is random.
rvbinom(1, size=s, prob=p) # Both the size and the probability are random.
