make.chain

Note that this assumes that the chain is a tree (no loops)

Implements different kinds of bootstraps
to estimate sampling variation from survey data with
complex designs. Includes the rescaled bootstrap
described in Rust and Rao (1996) <doi:10.1177/096228029600500305> and
Rao and Wu (1988) <doi:10.1080/01621459.1988.10478591>.

Bootstrap with Survey Data

make.chain function

<dl><dt>seed.id</dt>
<dd>The id of the seed whose chain we
wish to build from the dataset</dd>
<dt>survey.data</dt>
<dd>The dataset</dd>
<dt>is.child.fn</dt>
<dd>A function which takes two ids as arguments;
it is expected to return <code>TRUE</code> if the second argument is the parent of the
first, and <code>FALSE</code> otherwise. it defaults to <code>is.child.ct()</code></dd></dl>

Arguments

Build an RDS seed's chain from the dataset — make.chain
