Replicate Elements of Random Vectors

Source: R/rep_rv.R

Transpose a random array by permuting its dimensions and optionally resizing it.

# S3 method for rv
rep(x, times, ...)

Arguments

x

a random vector to be replicated

times

number of replications

...

further arguments passed to rep

Details

This is the rv-compatible version of the function rep.

Since rep is not a generic function, the whole name rep.rv must be specified when calling the function when x is an 'rv' object.
