Description

Calculate Responsiveness

Usage

part_resp(plans, shp, dvote, rvote, v = 0.5, bandwidth = 0.01)

Arguments

plans	redist_plans object or plans_matrix where each row indicates a district assignment and each column is a plan
shp	redist_map object, tibble, or data frame containing other columns
dvote	unqouted name of column in shp with total population
rvote	unqouted name of column in shp with group population

Examples

data(nh)
data(nh_m)
# For a single plan:
part_resp(plans = nh$r_2020, shp = nh, rvote = nrv, dvote = ndv)

# Or many plans:
part_resp(plans = nh_m[, 3:5], shp = nh, rvote = nrv, dvote = ndv)
