this is the command i made for a normal distribution, but when i try to plot the histograms, i dont know why the bars don't stick on the line... nsamples<-1000 sampsize<-15 Samples<-matrix(rnorm(nsamples*sampsize,0,1),nrow=nsamples) a<-apply(Samples,1,var) NC14<-a*14 x<-0:40 plot(x,dchisq(x,14),type='h') hist(NC14,freq=F,add=T) -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Need-help-on-ploting-Histograms-tp23652178p23652178.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Dear R users, Can anyone please tell me how to generate a large number of samples in R, given certain distribution and size. For example, if I want to generate 1000 samples of size n=100, with a N(0,1) distribution, how should I proceed? (Since I dont want to do "rnorm(100,0,1)" in R for 1000 times) Thanks for help Debbie
