draw_rs: Draw a random sample

In randomizr: Easy-to-Use Tools for Common Forms of Random Assignment and Sampling

Draw a random sample

Description

You can either give draw_rs() an declaration, as created by declare_rs or you can specify the other arguments to describe a random sampling procedure.

Usage

draw_rs(
  declaration = NULL,
  N = NULL,
  strata = NULL,
  clusters = NULL,
  n = NULL,
  n_unit = NULL,
  prob = NULL,
  prob_unit = NULL,
  strata_n = NULL,
  strata_prob = NULL,
  simple = FALSE,
  check_inputs = TRUE
)

Arguments

declaration	A random sampling declaration, created by declare_rs.
N	The number of units. N must be a positive integer. (required)
strata	A vector of length N that indicates which stratum each unit belongs to.
clusters	A vector of length N that indicates which cluster each unit belongs to.
n	Use for a design in which n units (or clusters) are sampled. In a stratified design, exactly n units in each stratum will be sampled. (optional)
n_unit	Under complete random sampling, must be constant across units. Under stratified random sampling, must be constant within strata.
prob	Use for a design in which either floor(N*prob) or ceiling(N*prob) units (or clusters) are sampled. The probability of being sampled is exactly prob because with probability 1-prob, floor(N*prob) units (or clusters) will be sampled and with probability prob, ceiling(N*prob) units (or clusters) will be sampled. prob must be a real number between 0 and 1 inclusive. (optional)
prob_unit	Must of be of length N. Under simple random sampling, can be different for each unit or cluster. Under complete random sampling, must be constant across units. Under stratified random sampling, must be constant within strata.
strata_n	Use for a design in which strata_n describes the number of units to sample within each stratum.
strata_prob	Use for a design in which strata_prob describes the probability of being sampled within each stratum. Differs from prob in that the probability of being sampled can vary across strata.
simple	logical, defaults to FALSE. If TRUE, simple random sampling is used. When simple = TRUE, please do not specify n or strata_n. When simple = TRUE, prob may vary by unit.
check_inputs	logical. Defaults to TRUE.

Examples

declaration <- declare_rs(N = 100, n = 30)
S <- draw_rs(declaration = declaration)
table(S)

# equivalent to
S <- draw_rs(N = 100, n = 30)
table(S)
