R.utils (version 1.32.4)

resample: Sample values from a set of elements

Description

Sample values from a set of elements. Contrary to sample(), this function also works as expected when there is only one element in the set to be sampled, cf. [1]. This function originates from the example code of sample() as of R v2.12.0.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'default':
resample(x, ...)

Arguments

x
A vector of any length and data type.
...
Additional arguments passed to sample.int().

Value

  • Returns a sampled vector of the same data types as argument x.
