Thanks Dave. What I actually want is to obtain say 10, different sets of (n=50) data for every 10,000 iterations I run. You will realise that the current code produces one set of data (n=50). I want 10 different sets of 50 observations at one run. I hope this makes sense.

The code runs without error. So .... what exactly is the problem? (I have no experience with the Copas selection model if in fact that is what is being exemplified.) -- David Winsemius Alameda, CA, USA ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
