get_recdevs function

Return a set of recruitment deviations

This function returns a set of pseudo-random recruitment deviations based on an iteration number. Given the same iteration number the function will return the same recruitment deviations. The deviations are standard normal. I.e., they have a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1.

get_recdevs(iteration, n, seed = 21)

Arguments

• iteration: The iteration number. This is used as an ID to set the random number seed.
• n: The length of the vector returned.
• seed: An integer value to pass to set.seed.

Returns

A vector of standard normal recruitment deviations.

Examples

get_recdevs(1, 10)
get_recdevs(1, 10)
get_recdevs(2, 10)
