Computer Simulation and Random Number Generation
Learner Outcomes
In this chapter we will create new data sets using computer generated random numbers. In this way we can simulate research outcomes without actually performing the research.
Some basic rules of the exercise are that we must begin by understanding our variables and the parameters that the variables represent. Min max estimates variance, N
Through computer simulation approaches we can combine logic with combinations and permutations in factorial models to explore wicked problems.
