landingcube: Landing phase for the cube method

In sampling: Survey Sampling

Landing phase for the cube method

Description

Landing phase of the cube method using linear programming.

Usage

landingcube(X,pikstar,pik,comment=TRUE)

Arguments

X	matrix of auxiliary variables on which the sample must be balanced.
pikstar	vector obtained at the end of the flight phase.
pik	vector of inclusion probabilities.
comment	a comment is written during the execution if comment is TRUE.

# matrix of balancing variables
X=cbind(c(1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1),c(1.1,2.2,3.1,4.2,5.1,6.3,7.1,8.1,9.1))
# the sample size is 3
# vector of inclusion probabilities
pik=c(1/3,1/3,1/3,1/3,1/3,1/3,1/3,1/3,1/3)
# pikstar is almost a balanced sample and is ready for the landing phase
pikstar=fastflightcube(X,pik,order=1,comment=TRUE)
