VT_Reg

explicative variable of the sample

values of X for the individuals not in the sample

x_nots

covariance matrix of the individuals not in the sample

V_nots

calculates risk matrix associated with the BLE for for the total T

Allows the user to apply the Bayes Linear approach to finite population with the Simple Random Sampling - BLE_SRS() - and
the Stratified Simple Random Sampling design - BLE_SSRS() - (both without replacement), to the Ratio estimator (using auxiliary
information) - BLE_Ratio() - and to categorical data - BLE_Categorical().
The Bayes linear estimation approach is applied to a general linear regression model for finite population prediction in BLE_Reg()
and it is also possible to achieve the design based estimators using vague prior distributions.
