Dear All: I need someone to clarify the value of the *meanlog* and *stlog* used in the function *rlnorm* when you sample from log-normal distribution.
rlnorm(n, meanlog = 0, sdlog = 1) *For example: *y<- rlnorm(25, meanlog = 5, sdlog = 1) Is the value of the meanlog, *5*, the mean of the log-normal distribution. Similarly, is the value of the *sdlog*, *1*, the standard deviation of the log-normal distribution. or 5 and 1 are the mean and standard deviation of the normal distribution of x = log(y) ~N(mean =5, var = 1) with many thanks steve -- Steven M.
