Usage

generateMixedEffectDatasets(
  numberOfDatasetsToGenerate,
  preparedDataset,
  errorGenerator = rnorm,
  randomEffectGenerator = rnorm
)

Arguments

numberOfDatasetsToGenerate

number of datasets to generate.

preparedDataset

dataset as prepared by prepareMixedEffectDataset.

errorGenerator

random number generator used for the errors.

randomEffectGenerator

random number generator used for the spherical random effects.
