This function generates n random deviates that are drawn from the specified truncated distribution.
rtrunc(n, spec, a = -Inf, b = Inf, ...)
n |
a positive integer for the number of random deviates generated |
spec |
a character value that specifies the underlying probability distribution |
a |
a numeric value for the lower bound of the random variable |
b |
a numeric value for the upper bound of the random variable |
