Hi,
I want to create a simulation based on one "seed" number so it can not be totally random. How do I do this?
Do I have to assume a probability distribution and then simulate?
For example: if I have a 50% prevalence rate for a disease, I want to know the risk levels of that 50 % (say in deciles) and I thought that I could do this by simulating numbers based on that 50 % and do a frequency distribution to see the number (frequencies) that appear in each decile. This could tell me the probability of someone lying in that prevalence rate bracket.
