permutation: Permutation

Description

These function define a permutation for subsequent use.

Usage

permutation(..., n.items = NULL, fixed = TRUE)
# S3 method for shallot.permutation
print(x, ...)

Arguments

...

For the function permutation, a permutation of the integers 1, 2,... n, where n is the length of the vector. For the function print.shallot.permutation, this is ignored.

n.items

An optional argument provided instead of ... to request a random partition. The argument fixed must be FALSE.

x

An object of class shallot.permutation.

fixed

Should the permutation be fixed?

Value

An object of class shallot.permutation.

Details

A valid permutation of length n is an integer vector of length n containing each integer 1, 2,... n only once.
