For some reason, the while-loop I sent did not work. It was running forever
although I don't know why. Anyway, using repeat works fast:
repeat{x=rpois(50,2)
if(sum(x)==100) break
}

Betreff: [R] Sum(Random Numbers)=100
Hi R,
I need to generate 50 random numbers (preferably poisson), such that their
sum is equal to 100. How do I do this?
Thank you,
Shubha
