irnorm: Random Number Iterators

Description

These function returns an iterators that return random numbers of various distributions. Each one is a wrapper around a standard R function.

Usage

irnorm(..., count)
irunif(..., count)
irbinom(..., count)
irnbinom(..., count)
irpois(..., count)

Arguments

count

number of times that the iterator will fire. If not specified, it will fire values forever.

…

arguments to pass to the underlying rnorm function.

Value

An iterator that is a wrapper around the corresponding random number generator function.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
  # create an iterator that returns three random numbers
  it <- irnorm(1, count=3)
  nextElem(it)
  nextElem(it)
  nextElem(it)
  try(nextElem(it))  # expect a StopIteration exception
# }
