[R] generate ordered categorical variable in R

[David L Carlson]

There is a version of sample especially for integers:

> Q1 <- matrix(sample.int(4, 200, replace=TRUE), 200)
> str(Q1)
 int [1:200, 1] 1 4 4 2 3 3 4 4 2 3 ...

Subject: [R] generate ordered categorical variable in R

Dear R- users

I want to generate ordered categorical variable vector with 200x1 dimension
and from 1 to 4 categories and i tried with this code

Q1=runif(200,1,4) the results are not just 1 ,2 3,4, but the results with
decimals like 1.244, 2.342,4,321 and so on ... My question how can i
generate a vector and also a matrix with orered categorical variables and
without decimals just 1,2,3 ,4 ,1,2,3,4, ....

Many thanks in advance
