rand: Random numbers

In paternogbc/rpackage:

Description

Generate random sequences of numbers using normal distribution

Usage

rand(n, mean = 0, sd = 1, style = c("vector", "data.frame"),
  ncol = NULL)

Arguments

n	number of observations.
mean	distribution mean
sd	standard deviation of the mean
style	the style output ("vector", "data.frame")
ncol	the number of columns if style == "data.frame"

Details

This functions generate random numbers based on the nomral distribution through the function rnorm. It uses the 'mean' and standard deviation of the mean to generate 'n' random numbers. The user can choose to generate multiple vectors by setting style == "data.frame".

Value

The function rand returns a a vector or a data.frame with multiple random numbers. components:

vector: A numeric vector with n observations

data.frame: A data.frame with n rows and ncol columns. Each colulm corresponds to one vector with n observations.
