Generic bootstrap for curve-valued estimators

Description

Generic bootstrap for curve-valued estimators

Usage

bootstrap_curve(est_fun, R = 300, conf = 0.95, seed = NULL, keep_reps = FALSE)

Arguments

`est_fun`	Function of one argument `r`; called with `NULL` for the point estimate and with integers `1:R` for bootstrap replicates.
`R`	Number of replicates.
`conf`	Confidence level in `⁠(0, 1)⁠`.
`seed`	Optional RNG seed.
`keep_reps`	If `TRUE`, include replicate matrix in output.

Value

A list with estimate, lo, hi, and conf.

Examples

vals <- c(1, 2, 4, 8)
boot <- bootstrap_curve(
  function(r) {
    if (is.null(r)) {
      mean(vals)
    } else {
      mean(sample(vals, replace = TRUE))
    }
  },
  R = 20,
  seed = 1
)
boot$estimate
