Interesting set of question.. I am completely new to R but let me try my luck.
Random number in R x <- runif(60 , 0 , 10) # 60 numbers from 0 to 10 y<- runif(60, 15 , 25) # same as above , from 15 to 25 The second part though. Do you mean , for( i in 1:length(x)) { z = x[i] + y[i] return z } something like that? No idea about the third part though. regards Billy On Sun, Apr 29, 2012 at 9:29 AM, Mike Miller <mbmille...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Fri, 27 Apr 2012, Vale Fara wrote: > > I am working with lotteries and I need to generate two sets of uniform >> random numbers. >> >> Requirements: >> 1) each set has 60 random numbers >> > > random integers? > > > 2) random numbers in the first set are taken from an interval (0-10), >> whereas numbers in the second set are taken from a higher interval >> (15-25) >> > > Depends on if you mean integers.

That means the sum must be from 15 to 35.
