Simulation Commands
The Statistics package provides optimized algorithms for simulating from all supported distributions as well as tools for creating custom random number generators, parametric and non-parametric bootstrap.
Bootstrap
compute bootstrap statistics
KernelDensitySample
sample a kernel density estimate
Sample
generate random sample
Examples
with⁡Statistics:
Generate random sample drawn from the non-central beta distribution.
