I think your routine need a little fix x <- rlnorm(1e6,meanlog=1,sdlog=1) ## pick any parameters you like y <- round((x-min(x)/diff(range(x)))*199999+1) What you think?
Yes.
No. Bernardo misplaced the parenthesis around (x-min(x)) Correct version is: x <- rlnorm(1e6,meanlog=1,sdlog=1) ## pick any parameters you like y <- round((x-min(x))/diff(range(x))*199999+1)
Sorry, I'm obviously not paying enough attention. I will be interested to hear back from Gundala Viswanath to see if this solves his (?) problem (I sort of doubt it). Ben
