There are several ways, but the main difference is: with repetiton or not? Have a look at this: <hansl> nulldata 46 #with repetition series x = floor(uniform(0,46)) #without repetition matrix tmp = muniform(46,1) ~ seq(0,45)' series z = msortby(tmp,1)[,2] </hansl> Hope this helps, Riccardo (Jack) Lucchetti Dipartimento di Economia Università Politecnica delle Marche r.lucchetti(a)univpm.it http://www.econ.univpm.it/lucchetti
