torbie
Simulate values from probability distributions
What is it?
torbie is the name of a R package created to simulate values from three probability distributions: Normal, Poisson and Binomial. It is also the name of a type of cat coat coloring. A torbie is a Tortoiseshell cat with the tabby pattern, also known as lapjeskat in Dutch. According to Wikipedia Tortoiseshell cats combine two colours other than white, either closely mixed or in larger patches.
Installation
The fastest way to install the package would be to use devtools::install_github. Alternatively you could clone the repository and build the package via RStudio.
Next steps
- Adapt code for other distributions
- Get list of distributions in stats
- Use some non-standard evaluation to dynamically get random generation function
- Think of a more relevant name than torbie
