UPopips {sampling} | R Documentation |
Order pips sampling
Description
Implements order \pi ps
sampling (unequal probabilities, without replacement, fixed sample size).
Usage
UPopips(lambda,type=c("pareto","uniform","exponential"),eps=1e-6)
Arguments
lambda |
vector of working inclusion probabilities or target ones. |
type |
the type of order sampling (pareto, uniform, exponential). |
eps |
control value, by default equal to 1e-6. |
Value
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). The value eps is used to control lambda (lambda>eps & lambda < 1-eps).

#define the working inclusion probabilities
lambda<-c(0.2,0.7,0.8,0.5,0.4,0.4)
#draw a Pareto sample
s<-UPopips(lambda, type="pareto")
#the sample is
