In SafeVote: Election Vote Counting with Safety Features
correct.ranking R Documentation
Amend ballots with equal or incomplete preferences
Description
The 'correct.ranking' function returns a modified set of ballots. Its
argument 'partial' determines if ballots are partially set to '0' ('TRUE'),
or if it is a complete re-ranking, as allowed when 'equal.ranking = TRUE'. It
can be used by calling it explicitly. It is called by 'stv' if 'equal.ranking
= TRUE' or 'invalid.partial = TRUE'. It is also called from within the
'condorcet' function with the default value ('FALSE') for 'partial', i.e.
interpreting any '0' as a last= preference.
Usage
correct.ranking(votes, partial = FALSE, quiet = FALSE)
Arguments
votes
original contents of ballot box
partial
if 'FALSE' (default), each ballot is interpreted, if possible,
as a complete (but not necessarily total) ranking of the candidates. If
'TRUE', a ballot will contain a '0' on unranked candidates.
quiet
suppress diagnostics
Value
corrected ballots
