Examples

data(pisa)

## This model doesn't make a lot of sense, but it's the one in the
## Stata documentation because the outcome variable is numeric.

pisa$w_condstuwt<-with(pisa, w_fstuwt/wnrschbw)
pisa$id_student<-1:nrow(pisa)

dpisa<-survey::svydesign(id=~id_school+id_student, weight=~wnrschbw+w_condstuwt, data=pisa)
