generating random variables with expected value of one and finite variation.

How can I generate positive i.i.d random variables with the expected value of one and finite variation in MATLAB? Anyone help please.

 Accepted Answer

a = 1;
y = a*randn(1000,1) + 1;
creates 1000 normally distributed random numbers with expected value of 1 and variance a.

Sorry, replace "variance" by "standard deviation".
