sim.prop2: sim.prop2

Description

sim.prop2

Usage

sim.prop2(
  nx,
  ny,
  px = 0.5,
  py = 0.5,
  num.experiments = 1,
  experiment.name = "experiment",
  group.name = "group",
  x.value = "x",
  y.value = "y",
  value.name = "value",
  seed = 3471,
  vstr = 3.6
)

Value

A 'data.table' with simulated data for two groups ('x' and 'y') based on binomial distributions. The table contains columns corresponding to the experiment identifier, group labels ('x' or 'y').

Arguments

nx

A numeric value for the number of observations in the x group for each experiment.

ny

A numeric value for the number of observations in the y group for each experiment.

px

A numeric value for the probability of success in the x group.

py

A numeric value for the probability of success in the y group.

num.experiments

A numeric value representing the number of simulated experiments.

experiment.name

A character value providing the name for the column identifying the experiment.

group.name

A character value providing the name of the column of the group labels.

x.value

A character value specifying the label used for data in the x group (in the column labled by the group.name parameter).

y.value

A character value specifying the label used for data in the y group (in the column labled by the group.name parameter).

value.name

A character value specifying the name of the column that contains the value of the simulated data.

seed

A single numeric value, interpreted as an integer, or NULL. See help(set.seed).

vstr

A character string containing a version number, e.g., "1.6.2". The default RNG configuration of the current R version is used if vstr is greater than the current version. See help(set.seed).

Examples

simdat.prop2 <- sim.prop2(nx = 30, ny = 40, px = 0.5,
py = 0.55, num.experiments = 2, experiment.name = "sim",
group.name = "treatment", x.value = "group_1", y.value = "group_2",
value.name = "correct_answer", seed = 3)
