Simulating data with multiple inputs using map2()
The map() function is great if you need to iterate over one list, however, you will often need to iterate over two lists at the same time. This is where map2() comes in. While map() takes the list as the .x argument; map2() takes two lists as two arguments: .x and .y.
To test out map2(), you are going to create a simple dataset, with one list of numbers and one list of strings. You will put these two lists together and create some simulated data.

Anleitung zur Übung
- Create a
meanslist containing the values 1 through 3, each as a separate element. - Create a
siteslist with "north", "west", and "east". map2()over thesitesandmeanslists to create a data frame with two columns.- First column is
sites; second column is generated byrnorm()withmeanfrom themeanslist.
- First column is
