MultiOrd (version 2.4.4)

genOrd: Generates multivariate ordinal data from binary parameters

Description

Generates multivariate ordinal data from the ordinal marginal probabilities and a list returned by the simBinCorr function.

Usage

genOrd(no.rows, ordPmat, binObj)

Value

Mydata

A list with two components. Two components are a matrix of multivariate ordinal data (y) and its correlation matrix (Corr)

Arguments

no.rows

Number of rows

ordPmat

Input matrix of ordinal marginal probabilities

binObj

A list returned by the simBinCorr

Details

It generates multivariate ordinal data. The argument binObj must be obtained using simBinCorr before executing this function.

if (FALSE) binObj=simBinCorr(ordPmat1, cmat1, no.rows=100000, steps=0.025)		
if (FALSE) myData = genOrd( 1000, ordPmat1, binObj)
