sam.cor {multilevel} | R Documentation |
Generate a sample vector (y) with a known population correlation to a given vector (x). The degree of correlation between x and y is determined by rho (the population correlation). Observed sample correlations between x and y will vary around rho, but this variation will decrease as the number of x observations increase.
sam.cor(x,rho)
x |
The given vector. |
rho |
Population correlation. |
The function prints the sample correlation for the specific set of numbers generated.
y |
A vector of numbers correlated with x. |
