In planor: Generation of Regular Factorial Designs

Description Usage Arguments Value Note Author(s) References Examples

Randomize a factorial design according to a specified block structure formula.

1	planor.randomize(blockformula, data, out.order, keep.initial=FALSE)

`blockformula`	the block structure formula.
`data`	a data frame.
`out.order`	a list of `data` factors that will be used to order the rows of the randomized design; if missing, the factors of the block formula are used.
`keep.initial`	if TRUE, the initial row order of the design is stored in column `InitialUNITS` of the returned dataframe.

The input data frame after randomization.

Each name in blockformula must correspond to a factor of the dataframe data. The only exception is UNITS. If UNITS is used in blockformula but absent from data, a factor is added to data, with one level per row. See the examples below for the usage of UNITS in blockformula.

### Block design
Design <- data.frame(block=rep(1:4,rep(2,4)),
   treatment=c("A1","B1","A2","B2","A3","B3","A4","B4"))
### No within-block randomization
planor.randomize(~block, data=Design)
### Blocks and units within blocks randomization     
planor.randomize(~block/UNITS, data=Design) 
### Row-Column design
RowColDes <- data.frame(row=rep(1:3,rep(3,3)),col=rep(1:3,3),
treatment=LETTERS[c(1:3,2,3,1,3,1,2)],
oldRow=rep(1:3,rep(3,3)),oldCol=rep(1:3,3))
planor.randomize(~row*col, data=RowColDes)
