There are many ways to do this.
rnorm generates random numbers using normal distribution generator.
runif generates random numbers using uniform distribution generator, which by
default ranges from 0 ~ 1.
I believe "runif()" would be the one you want, althought here are many other
distribution like binomial and poisson. To use runif, obviously you can read the
documentation by typing:
> ?runif
However, it works basically as:
runif(n, min=0, max=1)
where n is the number of random numbers you want, min=0, max=1 means you want them
to be generated through the uniform distribution generator, between 0 and 1 (they
are the default).
