rrandvec {rrandvec} | R Documentation |
Generate random vectors that sum up to one.
Description
Generate an matrix. Each row vector is a
probability vector
with
.
The function offers several methods to generate the rows in a way that the
components are unbiased which means that they are required to have similar /
the same probability distributions.
