sim.t2

Description

sim.t2

Usage

sim.t2(
  nx,
  ny,
  meanx = 0,
  meany = 1,
  sdx = 1,
  sdy = 1,
  num.experiments = 1,
  experiment.name = "experiment",
  group.name = "group",
  x.value = "x",
  y.value = "y",
  value.name = "value",
  seed = 3471,
  vstr = 3.6
)

Arguments

nx

A numeric value for the number of observations in the x group for each experiment.

ny

A numeric value for the number of observations in the y group for each experiment.

meanx

A numeric value for the expected value of the x group used in the simulation.

meany

A numeric value for the expected value of the y group used in the simulation.

sdx

A numeric value for the standard deviation of the x group used in the simulation.

sdy

A numeric value for the standard deviation of the y group used in the simulation.

num.experiments

A numeric value representing the number of simulated experiments.

experiment.name

A character value providing the name for the column identifying the experiment.

group.name

A character value providing the name of the column of the group labels.

x.value

A character value specifying the label used for data in the x group (in the column labled by the group.name parameter).

y.value

A character value specifying the label used for data in the y group (in the column labled by the group.name parameter).

value.name

A character value specifying the name of the column that contains the value of the simulated data.

seed

A single numeric value, interpreted as an integer, or NULL. See help(set.seed).

vstr

A character string containing a version number, e.g., "1.6.2". The default RNG configuration of the current R version is used if vstr is greater than the current version. See help(set.seed).

Value

A data frame or data.table with simulated data for two independent groups. Columns in the returned table correspond to the experiment identifier, group labels ('x' or 'y'), and the simulated values for each group. @examples simdat.t2 <- sim.t2(nx = 30, ny = 40, meanx = 0, meany = 0.2, sdx = 1, sdy = 1, num.experiments = 2, experiment.name = "experiment", group.name = "group", x.value = "x", y.value = "y", value.name = "value", seed = 17)
