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 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.
