[Rsiena-help] Simulating network without estimation

[Christian Steglich]

Hello Christoph,

yes, this is possible, albeit not as comfortably as in the 
statnet-package. For details & an example, see chapter 9 of the RSiena 
manual: http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/~snijders/siena/RSiena_Manual.pdf

I hope this helps.
Best regards,
Ch
