Re: [R] strange error message when using rnorm and rbinom

[Jim Lemon]

Hi JI,
The most likely problems are negative numbers for sd or "k" being
larger than the number of mu.m2 or disp.m2 values.

Do not believe everything you read on the internet!

"In one of the resources I found in over the internet explains that the
mean and sd should be declared as integers."

That is compete crap.  The mean of a norma/Gaussian can be any real;
the sd can be any positive real.
Moreover, one does not need to "declare" R variables. Have you gone
through any R tutorials? -- there are many good ones on the web.
Please do so if you haven't before posting here.

Cheers,
Bert

As you probably already guessed we are going to need to see the
contents of nref, mu.m2 and disp.m2 to help.
dput(nref)
dput(mu.m2)
dput(disp.m2)

k might help too.

[R] strange error message when using rnorm and rbinom

[JI Cho]

Dear R users,

I have been using rnorm, rbinom and have been getting the following warning
message when I do not have any NAs in my generated values.

Warning messages:1: In rnorm(nref, mean = mu.m2[[k]], sd = sqrt(disp.m2[[k]])) :
  NAs produced


In one of the resources I found in over the internet explains that the
mean and sd should be declared as integers. So I tried that which did
not solve the issue.


Can anyone advise me on how to eliminate the warning message?


Thank you.
