OrderWR: Pseudo-Support for Fixed Size With Replacement Sampling...

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

Creates a matrix containing every possible ordered sample under fixed sample size with replacement designs

1	OrderWR(N,m,ID=FALSE)

`N`	Population size
`m`	Sample size
`ID`	By default FALSE, a vector of values (numeric or string) identifying each unit in the population

The number of samples in a with replacement support is not equal to the number of ordered samples induced by a with replacement sampling design.

The function returns a matrix of N^m rows and m columns. Each row of this matrix corresponds to a possible ordered sample.

# Vector U contains the label of a population
U <- c("Yves", "Ken", "Erik", "Sharon", "Leslie")
N <- length(U)
# Under this context, there are five (5) possible ordered samples
OrderWR(N,1)
# The same output, but labeled
OrderWR(N,1,ID=U)
# y is the variable of interest
y<-c(32,34,46,89,35)
OrderWR(N,1,ID=y)

# If the smaple size is m=2, there are (25) possible ordered samples
OrderWR(N,2)
# The same output, but labeled
OrderWR(N,2,ID=U)
# y is the variable of interest
y<-c(32,34,46,89,35)

# Note that the number of ordered samples is not equal to the number of
