rmvord_mc: Multivariate Ordinal Random Variates by Monte Carlo...

In orddata: Generation of Artificial Ordinal and Binary Data

Description

Creates correlated multivariate ordinal random variables by a Monte Carlo simulation.

Usage

rmvord_mc(n = 1, probs, Cor)

Arguments

n	Number of Observations
probs	List of probabilities for the variables, length of probability equals number of items, length of list equals number of variables
Cor	Correlation matrix

Details

Ordinal values are produced by shifting the variables until correlation structure is reached.

Value

Returns n observations with given marginal probabilities probs and correlation structure Cor.
