Draw random samples from a normal distribution, \(t\)-distribution,
generalized error distribution, or their skewed variants (all standardized
to have mean zero and variance one).
Usage
rnorm_s(n)
rstd_s(n, df = 10000)
rged_s(n, shape = 2)
rsged_s(n, shape = 2, skew = 1)
rald_s(n, P = 8)
rsnorm_s(n, skew = 1)
rsstd_s(n, df = 10000, skew = 1)
rsald_s(n, P = 8, skew = 1)
Value
These functions return a numeric vector of length n.
Arguments
n
the number of observations to draw.
df
the degrees of freedom for a (skewed) \(t\)-distribution.
shape
the shape parameter for a (skewed) generalized error
distribution.
skew
the skewness parameter in the skewed distributions.
P
the number of Laplace distributions (minus 1) to derive the arithmetic
mean from as the basis for a (skewed) average Laplace (AL) distribution
distribution.
