Arguments
n
the number of random numbers desired.

rnorm for each.
Value
numeric vector of length n.

for the construction and further methods.
Examples
x <- rnorMix(5000, MW.nm10)
hist(x)# you don't see the claw
plot(density(x), ylim = c(0,0.6),
main = "Estim. and true 'MW.nm10' density")
lines(MW.nm10, col = "orange")
