In this post I'll show you how to simulate a large dataset of mortality claims. Sometimes it's useful to use simulated data. For example, if you wanted to experiment with new modelling techniques but were unable to find a useful dataset, it may be easiest just to create your own. Alternatively, you may simply wish to supplement existing data with simulated data. If you have some assumptions about the variables you want to create, it's possible to create entire datasets from scratch.
