Re: [R] How to generate integers from uniform distribution with fixed mean

Sorry I forgot to talk about the range. But as an example, range (17,23) works. In your codes, mean is not exactly 20 and the samples are not integer. However, what I want is integers with mean 20 exactly. Any tips? Thanks On Thu, Sep 2, 2010 at 12:16 AM, Barry Rowlingson

[R] How to generate integers from uniform distribution with fixed mean

Hi, folks, runif (n,min,max) is the typical code for generate R.V from uniform dist. But what if we need to fix the mean as 20, and we want the values to be integers only? Thanks [[alternative HTML version deleted]] __ R-help@r-project.org
