R -helpers i have been trying to do this problem without must success,i managed to do a graph for x, but it is not what i want to define. I have also been able to do simple rendom sample. If possible can someone help here is the code for the graph pleae help data.frame(ID=c(1,2,3),mu=c(10000,34000,50000),sigma=c(2000,3000,5000)) curve(dnorm(x,mean=parms$mu[1],sd=parms$sigma[1]),from=2000, to=80000, ylab="density", col="red") curve(dnorm(x,mean=parms$mu[2],sd=parms$sigma[2]),from=1000, to=80000, ylab="density", col="blue", add=TRUE) curve(dnorm(x,mean=parms$mu[3],sd=parms$sigma[3]),from=1000, to=80000, ylab="density", col="forestgreen", add=TRUE) ### --- On Wed, 23/9/09, KABELI MEFANE <kabelimefane@yahoo.co.uk> wrote: From: KABELI MEFANE <kabelimefane@yahoo.co.uk> Subject: [R] Simulating and Plotting To: R-help@r-project.org Date: Wednesday, 23 September, 2009, 10:32 PM R-helpers I have been learning a little bit of R. I am simulating and i want to draw a normal curve for all my variables so that i will see the overlaps and reduce them, after that i want to draw a gragh of all the values that are in the data frame to see if it follows a normal distribution also. Lastly i will try to sample from this data. Please help and make suggestions.
