Sep 9, 2014 at 14:46 comment added whuber To answer the question in the title, consider using rmultinom(1, 10^5, rep(1,4))) to count the number of times each of four teams will be the division winner in 10^5 independent simulations. The execution of this simulation is practically instantaneous and it scales beautifully (although for more than 2^31-1 iterations you would have to make multiple calls to this function and sum the results: do so by increasing its first argument).
