Questions

1. Simulate data for 30 draws from a normal distribution where the means and standard deviations vary among three distributions.

set.seed(10)
rnorm(30,mean=c(2,6,100),sd=c(1,10,50))
##  [1]   2.0187462   4.1574746  31.4334725   1.4008323   8.9454513
##  [6] 119.4897150   0.7919238   2.3632398  18.6663659   1.7435216

2. Simulate 2 continuous variables (normal distribution) (n=20) and plot the relationship between them

set.seed(5)
x=rnorm(20,mean=2,sd=6)
set.seed(7)
y=rnorm(20,mean=8,sd=10)
plot(y~x)

3. Simulate 3 variables (x1, x2 and y). x1 and x2 should be drawn from a uniform distribution and y should be drawn from a normal distribution. Fit a multiple linear regression.

x1=runif(150,min=2,max=40)
x2=runif(150,min=1,max=30)
y=rnorm(150,mean=20,sd=30)
fitting=lm(y~x1+x2)
plot(fitting)

4. Simulate 3 letters repeating each letter twice, 2 times.

rep(letters[3:5],each=2,times=2)
##  [1] "c" "c" "d" "d" "e" "e" "c" "c" "d" "d" "e" "e"

5. Create a dataframe (n = 27) with 3 groups, 2 factors and two quantitative response variables. Use the replicate function.

DFgenReplicated=replicate(3, expr=(data.frame(group=rep(letters[1:3], each=9),factor=rep(letters[4:5], length.out=27),
           x=rnorm(27,0,1),y=rnorm(27,1,2))), simplify=FALSE)
