r - setting upper and lower limits in rnorm

Question

I am simulating data using rnorm, but I need to set an upper and lower limit, does anyone know how to do this?

code:

rnorm(n = 10, mean = 39.74, sd = 25.09)

Upper limit needs to be 340, and the lower limit 0

I am asking this question because I am rewriting an SAS-code into an R-code. I have never used SAS. I am trying to rewrite the following piece of code:

sim_sample(simtot=100000,seed=10004,lbound=0,ubound=340,round_y=0.01,round_m=0.01,round_sd=0.01,n=15,m=39.74,sd=25.11,mk=4)

Answer 1

The rtruncnorm() function will return the results you need.

  library(truncnorm)
  rtruncnorm(n=10, a=0, b=340, mean=39.4, sd=25.09)
