They use the mvrnorm() function in the MASS package. This might be a good time to remind everyone of help.search(). Any of help.search("multivariate") help.search("normal") help.search("distribution") will mention mvrnorm() if you have MASS installed (which, as of 1.3.0, you almost certainly do). -thomas -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)
