R: Simulation of Gaussian vector

simulationData

R Documentation

Simulation of Gaussian vector

Description

Simulate a Gaussian vector with 'p' independent components of length 'n'. Parameters of each component are uniformly random and are taken between -10 and 10, with (absolute) standard deviation equals mean.

Usage

simulationData(n, p, distrib = rnorm, colinearity = FALSE)

Arguments

`n`	number of observations to draw.
`p`	number of variables to draw.
`distrib`	distribution to use. Currently only Gaussian one is supported.
`colinearity`	not currently used.

Value

a matrix with 'n' observations and 'p' variables.
