sim.bracket.matrix: Simulate the full bracket starting with an empty bracket

In mRchmadness: Numerical Tools for Filling Out an NCAA Basketball Tournament Bracket

Description

Simulate the full bracket starting with an empty bracket

Usage

sim.bracket.matrix(prob.matrix, league, num.reps, outcome, round,
  teams.remaining, untangling.indices)

Arguments

prob.matrix	a matrix of probabilities, with rows and columns corresponding to teams, matching the output of bradley.terry()
league	which league: "men" (default) or "women"
num.reps	number of simulations to perform
outcome	passed in from sim.bracket()
round	passed in from sim.bracket()
teams.remaining	passed in from sim.bracket()
untangling.indices	passed in from sim.bracket()

Value

a 63-by-num.reps matrix storing the simulation outcome, each column encoding the outcome for a single simulation in the following order: seeds 1 through 32 after round 1, seeds 1 through 16 after round 2, seeds 1 through 8 after round 3, seeds 1 through 4 after round 4, seeds 1 and 2 after round 5, and finally seed 1 after round 6 (the champion)
