sims is an R package to generate datasets from R orJAGS code for use in simulationstudies. The datasets are returned as annlists object and/or savedto file as individual .rds files. Parallelization is implemented usingthefuture package.Progress is reported using theprogressr package.

You can install the released version of sims fromCRAN with:

install.packages("sims")

And the development version fromGitHub with:

# install.packages("remotes")remotes::install_github("poissonconsulting/sims")

By default,sims_simulate() returns the simulated datasets in the formof annlists object.

library(sims)set.seed(10)sims_simulate("a <- runif(1)",nsims=2L)#> $a#> [1] 0.2213763#>#> an nlists object of 2 nlist objects each with 1 numeric element

If, however,save = TRUE then each nlist object is saved as an.rdsfile inpath.

set.seed(10)sims_simulate("a <- runif(1)",nsims=2L,save=TRUE,path= tempdir(),exists=NA)#> [1] TRUEsims_data_files(tempdir())#> [1] "data0000001.rds" "data0000002.rds"sims_data(tempdir())#> $a#> [1] 0.2213763#>#> an nlists object of 2 nlist objects each with 1 numeric element
