rake: rake

In rakeR: Easy Spatial Microsimulation (Raking) in R

Description

A convenience function wrapping weight() and extract() or weight() and integerise()

Usage

rake(cons, inds, vars, output = "fraction", iterations = 10, ...)

Arguments

cons	A data frame of constraint variables
inds	A data frame of individual–level (survey) data
vars	A character string of variables to iterate over
output	A string specifying the desired output, either "fraction" (extract()) or "integer" (integerise())
iterations	The number of iterations to perform. Defaults to 10.
...	Additional arguments to pass to depending on desired output: if "fraction" specify 'id' (see extract() documentation) if "integer" specify 'method' and 'seed' (see integerise() documentation)

Value

A data frame with extracted weights (if output == "fraction", the default) or integerised cases (if output == "integer")

Examples

## not run
## frac_weights <- rake(cons, inds, vars, output = "fraction",
##                      id = "id")

## int_weight <- rake(cons, inds, vars, output = "integer",
##                    method = "trs", seed = "42")
