Examples

x <- rlnorm(1e4, meanlog = 1.5, sdlog = 1.2)

m <- lm(log(x) ~ 1)

meanlog <- coef(m)

lnorm_mean(meanlog, sdlog)
#> [1] 9.179592
mean(x)
#> [1] 9.188247

lnorm_median(meanlog, sdlog)
#> [1] 4.399393
median(x)
#> [1] 4.432723

lnorm_sd(meanlog, sdlog)
#> [1] 16.81076
sd(x)
#> [1] 16.38653
