inclusionprobabilities: Inclusion probabilities

In sampling: Survey Sampling

Inclusion probabilities

Description

Computes the first-order inclusion probabilities from a vector of positive numbers (for a probability proportional-to-size sampling design). Their sum is equal to n, the sample size.

Usage

inclusionprobabilities(a,n)

Arguments

a	vector of positive numbers.
n	sample size.

Examples

############
## Example 1
############
# a vector of positive numbers
a=1:20
# inclusion probabilities for a sample size n=12
inclusionprobabilities(a,12)
############
## Example 2
############
# Computation of the inclusion probabilities proportional to the number 
# of inhabitants in each municipality of the Belgian municipalities data.
data(belgianmunicipalities)
pik=inclusionprobabilities(belgianmunicipalities$Tot04,200)
# the first-order inclusion probabilities for each municipality
data.frame(pik=pik,name=belgianmunicipalities$Commune)
# the sum is equal to the sample size
sum(pik)
