Dear All, I am performing some simulations for a new model. I run about 10,000 iterations with a sample of 50 datasets and this returns one set of 50 simulated data.
Now, what I need to obtain is 10 sets of the 50 simulated data out of the 10,000 iterations and not just only 1 set. The model is the Copas selection model for publication bias in Mete-analysis. Any one who knows this model has any suggestion for the improvement of my code is most welcome. Below is my code.
