Hi,
I'm using rlaplace distribution to draw non normal random deviates. I'm using
rmutil package for this. I know rlaplace needs location and dispersion
parameters but I want to pass diag matrix as dispersion parameters and I'm not
getting the correct values. Here is my code snippet:
dispersion = c(3,.20,.10)
dispDiag = diag(dispersion)
location = c(0,0,0)
output = (rlaplace(3, location, dispDiag))
Here is what I get:
-0.8475811 0.0000000 0.0000000
I dont know why it is returning 0's at 2nd and 3rd place. If I change the
values in location vector, it simply picks up the value and replace it at 2nd
and 3rd place.
You help will be highly appreciated
Victor
