Distribute number of swaps across lowest hierarchy level according to a predefined swaprate
. The swaprate is applied such that a single swap counts as swapping 2 households.
Number of swaps are randomly rounded up or down, if needed, such that the total number of swaps is in coherence with the swaprate.
NOTE: This is an internal function used for testing the C++-function distributeDraws
which is used inside the C++-function recordSwap()
.
distributeDraws_cpp(data, hierarchy, hid, swaprate, seed = 123456L)
micro data containing the hierarchy levels and household ID
column indices of variables in data
which refers to the geographic hierarchy in the micro data set. For instance county > municipality > district.
column index in data
which refers to the household identifier.
double between 0 and 1 defining the proportion of households which should be swapped, see details for more explanations
integer setting the sampling seed
