Generate a column of random numbers

[Ville Rantanen]

bogusInput=StringInput(content="Foo\n")
RandomData = CSVTransformer(csv1=bogusInput,
                  transform1="runif(100, min=0, max=100)",
                  transform2="rnorm(100, mean=0, sd=5)",
                  transform3="sample(1:100, 100)",
                  columnNames="c('Data1','Data2','Data3')")

Here, using CSVTransformer component:

• There's a compulsory input file, thus we create an empty bogus one
• First column uses uniform distribution function with min/max
• Second, a normal distr, wit mean and standard deviation
• Third is a random unique sampling, between 1-100, using all 100 numbers

Note, that while this example does not now use an input, it is presented here because sometimes you may want to generate randomness based on the input. If you simply really want random numbers without an input reference, use the Randomizer component
