Generation of correlated variables
Hi everyone. Based on a dependent variable (y), I'm trying to generate some independent variables with a specified correlation. For this there's no problems. However, I would like that have all my "regressors" to be orthogonal (i.e. no correlation among them. For example, y = x1 + x2 + x3 where the correlation between y x1 = 0.7, x2 = 0.4 and x3 = 0.8. However, x1, x2 and x3
