Generate bivariate uniform random numbers according to the Plackett distribution.

n |
number of observations. |
x |
vector of uniformly [0, 1] distributed real numbers. |
alpha |
association coefficient of the Plackett distribution. |
rho |
Pearson correlation coefficient. |
min, max |
lower and upper limits of the distribution. Must be finite. |
The functions can be used to generate bivariate distributions with
uniform marginals. Function pcu
generates a vector of uniform
random values of length(x)
which are correlated to the
corresponding vector x
, pcuseries
generates an
auto-correlated series, and alphatorho
resp. rho2alpha
convert between the usual correlation coefficient and the association
measure of the Plackett distribution.
