[R] Student-t distributed random value generation within a confidence interval?

allvals <- rt(1000,df=11)  
## 1000 samples is overkill: slightly more than 
##    500*(1.05) should be large enough
subvals <- (allvals[abs(allvals)<qt(0.975,df=11)])
vals <- m+subvals[1:500]*s/sqrt(n)

I'm subsetting before transforming, it seems slightly easier.

Thank you very much bbolker. It works very well!

Best regards
