finding mean and SD for a log-normal distribution
Dear R Expert
allow me to ask a quick qestion: I have a mean value of 6 and a SD of 3 describing my distribution. I would like to "convert" this distribution into a log normal distribution that would best describe it when resimulated using log normal distribution. Currently I am using another software to estimate the respective mean and SD on the log scale and the results are: 1.6667 and SD 0.47071. Then, to best reproduce my original distribution in R, I use the following commands:
c <- rlnorm(5000,1.6667,0.47071)
d &...
