Hi, I would obtain a random value between two (for example between 40.15 and 56.58 I would have only one value). I'm looking for a package/a function which could do this. Could anybody help me please? Cordialement Damien Landais

Subject: [R] random between two values
Hi,
I would obtain a random value between two (for example between 40.15 and
56.58 I would have only one value).
I'm looking for a package/a function which could do this.
Could anybody help me please?
Cordialement

PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
That's pretty straightforward to do - here's a simple function. The
exact behavior
at the "edges" is left as an exercise. :)
rbound <- function(rmin, rmax)
{
x <- runif(1)
x <- x * (rmax - rmin) + rmin
x
}
