discrete probability distribution
Hi I want to sample from a discrete random variable X, defined on the non-negative integers, with prob(X=0) = (1-p) prob(X=1) = (1-p)*p ... prob(X=i)=(1-p)*p^i ... Before reinventing the wheel, is there a ready-made R function to give me such a thing? -- Robin Hankin Uncertainty Analyst National Oceanography Centre, Southampton European Way, Southampton SO14 3ZH, UK tel 023-8059-7743
