sim.bracket.matrix: Simulate the full bracket starting with an empty bracket
Description
Simulate the full bracket starting with an empty bracket
Usage
sim.bracket.matrix(prob.matrix, league, num.reps, outcome, round,
teams.remaining, untangling.indices)
Arguments
prob.matrix
a matrix of probabilities, with rows and columns
corresponding to teams, matching the output of bradley.terry()
league
which league: "men" (default) or "women"
num.reps
number of simulations to perform
outcome
passed in from sim.bracket()
round
passed in from sim.bracket()
teams.remaining
passed in from sim.bracket()
untangling.indices
passed in from sim.bracket()
Value
a 63-by-num.reps matrix storing the simulation outcome, each
column encoding the outcome for a single simulation in the following
order: seeds 1 through 32 after round 1, seeds 1 through 16 after round 2,
seeds 1 through 8 after round 3, seeds 1 through 4 after round 4,
seeds 1 and 2 after round 5, and finally seed 1 after round 6 (the
