redist (version 4.2.0)

redist.run.enumpart: Runs the enumpart algorithm

Description

Runs the enumpart algorithm

Usage

redist.run.enumpart(
  ordered_path,
  out_path,
  ndists = 2,
  all = TRUE,
  n = NULL,
  weight_path = NULL,
  lower = NULL,
  upper = NULL,
  options = NULL
)

Value

0 on success

Arguments

ordered_path

Path used in redist.prep.enumpart (not including ".dat")

out_path

Valid path to output the enumerated districts

ndists

number of districts to enumerate

all

boolean. TRUE outputs all districts. FALSE samples n districts.

n

integer. Number of districts to output if all is FALSE. Returns districts selected from uniform random distribution.

weight_path

A path (not including ".dat") to a space-delimited file containing a vector of vertex weights, to be used along with lower and upper.

lower

A lower bound on each partition's total weight, implemented by rejection sampling.

upper

An upper bound on each partition's total weight.

options

Additional enumpart arguments. Not recommended for use.
