\name{gamSim}
\alias{gamSim}
%- Also NEED an `\alias' for EACH other topic documented here.
\title{Simulate example data for GAMs}
\description{ Function used to simulate data sets to illustrate the use of
\code{\link{gam}} and \code{\link{gamm}}. Mostly used in help files to keep down
the length of the example code sections.
}
\usage{gamSim(eg=1,n=400,dist="normal",scale=2,verbose=TRUE)}
%- maybe also `usage' for other objects documented here.
\arguments{
\item{eg}{ numeric value specifying the example required.}
\item{n}{ number of data to simulate.}
\item{dist}{character string which may be used to specify the distribution of
the response.}
\item{scale}{Used to set noise level.}
\item{verbose}{Should information about simulation type be printed?}
}
\details{See the source code for exactly what is simulated in each case.
\enumerate{
\item{Gu and Wahba 4 univariate term example.}
\item{A smooth function of 2 variables.}
\item{Example with continuous by variable.}
\item{Example with factor by variable.}
\item{An additive example plus a factor variable.}
\item{Additive + random effect.}
\item{As 1 but with correlated covariates.}
}
}
\value{ Depends on \code{eg}, but usually a dataframe, which may also contain some information on
the underlying truth. Sometimes a list with more items, including a data frame for model fitting.
See source code or helpfile examples where the function is used for further information.}
