flip_coin {tidydice}

Simulating flipping a coin.

Description

Flipping a coin is simulated using sample(). The default coin has 2 sides and is fair. The properties of the coin can be changed. The result is returned as a tibble.

Usage

flip_coin(
  data = NULL,
  times = 1,
  rounds = 1,
  success = c(2),
  agg = FALSE,
  sides = 2,
  prob = NULL,
  seed = NULL
)

Arguments

data

Data from a previous experiment

times

How many times coin is flipped (or how many coins are flipped at the same time)

rounds

Number of rounds

success

Which result is a success (default = 2)

agg

If TRUE, the result is aggregated (by experiment, rounds)

sides

Number of sides of the coin (default = 2)

prob

Vector of probabilities for each side of the coin

seed

Seed to produce reproducible results

Value

Result of experiment as a tibble

Examples

# flipping a coin
flip_coin()

# flipping a coin 10 times
flip_coin(times = 10)

# aggregate result
flip_coin(times = 10, agg = TRUE)

# rounds 
flip_coin(times = 10, rounds = 3, agg = TRUE)

# experiments
library(dplyr)
flip_coin(times = 10, rounds = 3, agg = TRUE) %>% 
  flip_coin(times = 12, rounds = 3, agg = TRUE)
