Dear Sir,
[This is a list: there are a few hundred of us.]
I would like to set seed in R before this command
B <- 10 x <- rnorm(15)
for (i in 1:B)
{boot.sample <- print(sample(x,replace=T))
}
...
for reason of stable of data output. How I do ?
If you have R 1.0.0 (or 0.99.0) use the function set.seed, as in set.seed(54321). If not, we suggest you upgrade (although it can be done by setting .Random.seed: see ?Random). I am not sure what you are doing, but as it is often helpful not to re-invent the wheel you might like to look at package boot.
