createSmallerMatrix

<p>Data for which smaller Matrix should be computed
</p>

givenMatrix

<p>In this function a smaller matrix is created with dimensions of size which is calculated over ramification. All of the cells are filled with 99, which is edited in a further step by usage of function (fillMatrix). This matrix is desired, because it represents the status of the data one step before its result. Therefore the impact of q in the [p-p-p-q]-model is neglected and the estimation of p can be one on the basis of the smaller matrix. Function is used by main function "estimationFunction" and shall not be called or changed by user. 
</p>

The parameters p and q are estimated with the aid of a randomized Sierpinski Carpet which is built on a [p-p-p-q]-model. Thereby, for three times a simulation with a p-value and once with a q-value is assumed. Hence, these parameters are estimated and displayed. Moreover, functions for simulating random Sierpinski-Carpets with constant and variable probabilities are included. For more details on the method please see Hermann et al. (2015) <doi:10.1002/sim.6497>.
