Usage

simGames(n = 1e3, p, p2 = NULL, firstServe = NULL, detail = FALSE, player = "A")

Arguments

Return

simGames will return a detailed list, containing data about the simulated games rather than just the results of the simulations, this list can then be converted to a dataset using simDf, an example dataset is show below.

Methods

There are a number of generic methods available for an object returned by simGames, these are print, summary and plot, example use is show below.

Example

egGames <- simGames(n = 10, p = .78, p2 = .56, firstServe = .67)

The object egGames has a class of svR_games which comes with a few methods

egGames

## 
## Simulation of 10 service games:
## Server won 1 (10/10) of games.
## 
## Server probabilities:
##     p   p2 firstServe
##  0.78 0.56       0.67

summary(egGames)

## 
## Server probabilities:

##  0.78 0.56       0.67
## 
## Service Game scores:
##       returner
## server   0   1   2   3
##      4 0.3 0.2 0.4    
##      5             0.1

plot(egGames)

Using simDf

The returned list can also be entered into the function simDf which will convert the simulated games into a dataset.

df <- simDf(egGames)
head(df)
