Repeated Random Samples

Takes repeated samples without replacement from the population. See the Details section below for further information.

Usage

repeatedSampleWithoutReplacement(k, N, n, prob = NULL)

Arguments

k

integer, the number of repeated samples to generate

N

positive integer value, the population size

n

positive integer value, the sample size

prob

(optional) N-length vector of positive numeric values, the probability weights for obtaining the N elements

Value

A list of length k where each element is a vector of indices representing the sampled data.

Details

This function takes repeated samples by using the replicate function and the sampleWithoutReplacement sampling function.
