Hello all,

I have the code below to simulate samples of certain size from a
particular distribution (here,beta distribution) and compute some
statistics for the samples.

betasim2<-function(nsim,n,alpha,beta)
{
        sim<-matrix(rbeta(nsim*n,alpha,beta),ncol=n)
        xmean<-apply(sim,1,mean)
        xvar<-apply(sim,1,var)
        xmedian<-apply(sim,1,median)
simset<-data.frame(sampleno=seq1:nsim),means=xmean,vars=xvar,medians=xmedian)
        return(simset)
}

I can write a similar coding for any distribution individually.
Now, I would like to have a generic code, say if I specify the
distribution with the parameters and simulation and sample size I would
like to have the simulations done for the mentioned distribution and the
statistics performed.

I would appreciate any help in doing so?

Thanks for your time.
