genOrd {MultiOrd}

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)

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.

Value

Mydata

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