nk: Sample Selection Indicator for With Replacement Sampling...

In TeachingSampling: Selection of Samples and Parameter Estimation in Finite Population

Description

The function returns a matrix of binom(N+m-1)(m) rows and N columns. Creates a matrix of values (0, if the unit does not belongs to a specified sample, 1, if the unit is selected once in the sample; 2, if the unit is selected twice in the sample, etc.) for every possible sample under fixed sample size designs with replacement

Usage

nk(N, m)

Arguments

N	Population size
m	Sample size

Value

The function returns a matrix of binom(N+m-1)(m) rows and N columns. The kth column corresponds to the sample selection indicator, of the kth unit, to a possible sample.
