rejection_sampling: Single Variable Rejection Sampling
In reikerp/contdistpeter: Peter's Continuous Distribution Package

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) Examples

This is the main function of the MATH 4800 project. It recieves a function's pdf and generates a number of samples from the rv with the provided pdf using rejection sampling. It is thereby somewhat similar to functions such as rbinom, runif, etc.

1	rejection_sampling(n = 1, pdf, a = 0, b = 1, C)

`n`	is the number of samples to generate.
`pdf`	is the pdf of the random variable you wish to sample from.
`a`	is the lower bound of the random variable you wish to sample from.
`b`	is the upper bound of the random variable you wish to sample from.
`C`	is a numeric such that f(x) <= C for all values of x.

my_sample A vector containg the desired number of random samples from the desired distribution.
