Windows XP R 2.7.1 I am trying to use apply (or lapply, sapply) to get the sample function to select 1000 samples of size 10 from c(1,2,3) with probability c(0.1,0.2,0.7), i.e.
for (i in 1:1000) { j<-sample(c(1,2,3),10,replace=TRUE,prob=c(0.1,0.2,0.7)) print(j) } My solution does not work: jj<-sapply(c(1,2,3),sample,size=10,replace=TRUE,prob=c(.1,.3,.6)) Suggestions?
