Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) Examples

This function takes a frequencies() object and returns a data.frame with the appropriate stratum and loci derived randomly.

1	make_population(x, N = 20, F = 0)

`x`	A `data.frame` as returned by the `frequencies()` function. For a single locus, it has columns "Allele" and "Frequency" for multiple loci, it has a "Locus" column, and if it is to be subdivided into strata, you have a "Strata" column.
`N`	The number of individuals to create (default = 20). This is a 'per-stratum' estimate so if you have K strata the result will be K*N individuals.
`F`	The inbreeding index (Fis).

A data.frame with individuals, loci, and potentially strata
