try this: n <- 3 data.frame(Exp = seq_len(n), Heads = rbinom(n, 200, 0.5))
I hope it helps. Best, Dimitris On 10/13/2010 7:28 PM, Shiv wrote:
I am trying a simple toin coss simulation, of say 200 coin tosses. The idea is to have a data frame like so: Experiment# Number_Of_Heads 1 104 2 96 3 101 So I do: d<-data.frame(exp_num=c(1,2,3)); /* Just 3 experiments to begin with */ d$head_ct<-sum(sample(0:1,200,repl=TRUE)); d; exp_num head_ct 1 1 85 2 2 85 3 3 85 /* the same scalar value is applied to all the rows */ So I tried using "within", and "for", and making the "sum( " as a function, and I end up with the same...I get the same constant value. But what I want of course is different "samples"....
