conduct_multiple_surveys: Conduct multiple simulations of a survey

In stevenranney/AnglerCreelSurveySimulation: Simulate a Bus Route Creel Survey of Anglers

Conduct multiple simulations of a survey

Description

This function leverages make_anglers, get_total_values, and simulate_bus_route to conduct multiple bus-route or traditional access point creel surveys (from the number provided to the n_sims argument) of a population of anglers.

Usage

conduct_multiple_surveys(n_sims, ...)

Arguments

n_sims	The number of simulations to be conducted in the simulation of interest.
...	Arguments to be passed to other subfunctions

Details

Because this function is merely a wrapper for the simulate_bus_route code, the user still needs to set two of start_time, wait_time, and end_time, n_anglers, n_sites, and fishing_day_length as objects. These can be passed through the ... argument.

Value

Estimate catch (\widehat{E}), the catch rate calculated by the ratio of means, the true, observed catch, and the actual catch rate (\overline{\lambda}).
