# Simulation - [MCNORM](https://excelhelp.windhamlabs.com/functions/simulation/mcnorm.md): Simulate a matrix of multivariate normal returns using Monte-Carlo with the option to preserve an expected correlation structure. - [BOOTSTRAP](https://excelhelp.windhamlabs.com/functions/simulation/bootstrap.md): Simulate values by bootstrap sampling from a dateset. The bootstrap method allows for a uniform random sampling, or a biased (probability-weighted) sampling method, useful for scenario analysis. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
