Suppose you want to simulate data in R for a statistical test. What functions would you use and how?
- Use the rnorm() function to generate normally distributed data
- Use the rpois() function to generate data from a Poisson distribution
- Use the sim() function
- Use the simulate() function
In R, we often use functions like rnorm(), runif(), rbinom(), rpois(), etc. to simulate data for statistical tests. These functions generate random numbers from specific statistical distributions. For example, to simulate 1000 observations from a standard normal distribution, we can use rnorm(1000).
