Data Composition
Simulate variables and data
The purpose of this post is to enable readers to create data from scratch which they can use for their analyses or visualizations.
Simulate dependent variables
When you simulate a dataset it is often not enough to have independent variables, but you want to have some dependency between the variables. In this post we explore ways of creating this dependency.
Data simulation with rmultinom
When creating several datasets that depend on each other, the rmultinom function from the stats package can be a useful helper. In this example we will see how to create customer transactions from a customer table.
Useful packages for data simulation
We will explore the packages wakefield, rcorpora, charlatan, fabricatr, and GenOrd which can be helpful for data simulation.
