UPmultinomial {sampling} | R Documentation |
Uses the Hansen-Hurwitz method to select a sample of units (unequal probabilities, with replacement, fixed sample size).
UPmultinomial(pik)
pik |
vector of the prescribed inclusion probabilities. |
Returns a vector (with elements 0 and 1) of size N, the population size. Each element k of this vector indicates the status of unit k (1, unit k is selected in the sample; 0, otherwise).
