rv (version 2.0.0)

c: Concatenation of random vectors

Description

Concatentates random vectors.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'rv':
c(\dots, recursive = FALSE)
  ## S3 method for class 'rvsummary':
c(\dots, recursive = FALSE)
  cc(..., recursive = FALSE)

Arguments

...

objects to be concatenated. Can be a mixture of constants and rv objects.

recursive

logical. If recursive = TRUE, the function recursively descends through lists (and pairlists) combining all their elements into a vector.

Details

NOTE: recursive has not yet been tested.

cc is a function that works for both non-rv and other vectors. To make code compatible for both constant vectors and rv objects, one can use cc instead of c.

Examples

x <- rvnorm(2)
  y <- rvbern(2, prob=0.5)
  z <- c(x, y)
  print(z)
  z1 <- cc(1, z)
  z2 <- c(as.rv(1), z)
  z3 <- c(as.rv(1), z)
  print(z1)
  print(z2)
  print(z3)
