Hello, I'm facing the following task: Simulate 500 values of the statistic (n-1)s^2/sigma^2 based on taking 500 samples of size n=40 from the N(mu=10; sigma^2 = 25) distribution.
I think with the following command: rep(rnorm(40,10,25),times=500) I was able to simulate the samples but how I now can simulate the values of the chi-square-distribution is a mystery to me... I hope anyone can help me, shouldn't be a big problem... Thanks in advance! Reason for posting: I started a course at the University of Manchester and had to catch up with R, which I never used back in Switzerland. Now I'm solving some exercises to get more practice and this is one of them. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Simulate-values-tp4705574.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
