The “runif” Function in R
Package: Base R (no specific package required)
Purpose: Generates random numbers from a uniform distribution.
General Class: Random Number Generation
Required Argument(s):
n: The number of random values to generate.
Notable Optional Arguments:
min: The minimum value of the distribution. The default is 0.
max: The maximum value of the distribution. The default is 1.
Example:
# Generate 100 random values from a uniform distribution between 1 and 10
random_values <- runif(n = 100, min = 1, max = 10)
print(random_values)In this example, the runif function is used to generate 100 random values from a uniform distribution between 1 and 10. The generated values are then printed to the console.
