I need use different parameters of distribution for different case to generate random value, but I use ifelse, the generated value is fixed without change. Here is example data1 y x 1 1 2 2 2 1 3 3 2 4 4 3 5 5 3 6 6 1 7 7 2 8 8 1 9 9 1 10 10 3 11 11 3 12 12 2 ifelse(data1$x==1,rnorm(1,2,1),ifelse(data1$x==2,rnorm(1,-2,1),rnorm(1,110,1))) [1] -1.8042172 0.8478681 -1.8042172 110.0301239 110.0301239 0.8478681 -1.8042172 0.8478681 0.8478681 110.0301239 [11] 110.0301239 -1.8042172
How can I get real random value from a distribution.
