search for: nt_2

Please, I would like to know how to generate a truncated multivariate normal distribution k - dimensional, X ~ NT(mu, Sigma), where the elements of X to be non-negative (except the first), and the first dimension is strictly larger than zero. Example: X ~ NT_2(mu, Sigma), where mu=c(0.5, 0.5) and Sigma=c([120, 191], [191,154]), with X_1>0 and X_2>=0 Could anybody help me? Thanks in advanced. Juliana G.

Dear Rxperts, I have a varaibles data file that looks like this p(1) 10 p(1) 3 p(1) 4 p(2) 20 p(2) 30 p(2) 40 p(3) 4 p(3) 1 p(1) 2 I cannot process these data with R because it does not like the parentheses. How can I get these to look like: p1 10 p1 3 p1 4 p2 20 p2 30 p2 40 p3 4 p3 1 p3 2 The data is in a tab delimited text file and I want to get it into a data.frame(). Many thanks in
