Simulations of ecological data

[aammd]

I'd love to learn how to do simulations in Julia. It seems to me that there could be two simple examples to start with:

• how to do a permutation test
• how to perform a simple stochastic simulation

Of course there are lots of simple biological examples for each. I think I first learned about permutation tests with an example involving the difference between two medians. Likewise my first exposure to stochastic simulation was a simple logistic population growth model. Those would be fun examples, but of course there are many more.

Great! I was going to add some more "data analysis" examples (but later -- I think my modeler's bias is showing). There are good examples in some intro to pop biol books to replicate.
