Replicate a Function Multiple Times
Here we are passing the function to replicate() to get them multiple times. We are using rnorm() function which will get the normal distribution using the mean as the value.
Syntax:
replicate(n, rnorm(value, mean))
where,
- value is the normal distribution value
- mean is the mean of the normal distribution
Example:
R
# replicate normal distribution with mean replicate (6, rnorm (3, mean=4)) |
Output:
[,1] [,2] [,3] [,4] [,5] [,6] [1,] 4.236647 4.626099 5.450712 3.724129 1.867676 3.344033 [2,] 2.841519 1.978552 4.267868 5.519327 4.147135 2.322976 [3,] 5.620265 4.575099 2.929690 3.417897 4.565281 3.827686
How to Use the replicate() Function in R?
replicate() function in R Programming Language is used to evaluate an expression N number of times repeatedly.
Syntax:
replicate(n, expression)
where
- expression is a statement to evaluate
- n is the number of times to evaluate the expression
