What do you want to simulate? Have you looked at "help.start()"
-> "An introduction to R" -> "probability distributions"? This contains
a list of standard distributions with the comment, "Prefix the name
given here by d for the density, p for the CDF, q for the quantile
function and r for simulation (random deviates)." For example,
runif(1000) produces a vector of 1000 uniform pseudo-random deviates,
while rnorm(1000) produces a vector of 1000 normal(0, 1) pseudo-random
variates. If you want other distributions, you can do a search of the
archives at "www.r-project.org" for the distribution of your choice. If
this doesn't answer your question, you might try being more specific --
e.g., trying something, then asking why it doesn't produce what you want.
hope this helps. spencer graves
