Creating Random Numbers
How to create random number in Julia and R? The following table translates the most common Julia commands into R language.
| Julia | R | |
|---|---|---|
| Create uniform random numbers |
||
A = rand(10) |
A = runif(10) |
|
| Create normal random numbers | ||
A = randn(10) |
A = rnorm(10) |
|
| Create normal random numbers (mean=1,std=2) |
||
using Distributions A = rand(Normal(1,2),10) |
A = rnorm(10,1,2) |
|
| Create Gamma distributed random numbers (shape=1,scale=2) |
||
using Distributions A = rand(Gamma(1,2),10) |
A = rgamma(10,
shape = 1,
scale = 2)
|
|
| Create Beta distributed random numbers (alpha=1,beta=2) |
||
using Distributions A = rand(Beta(1,2),10) |
A = rbeta(10,1,2) |
