Efficient Rounding

Description

A vector of proportions is efficiently rounded to integers.

Usage

efficient.rounding(proportions,n,random=TRUE)

Arguments

proportions

A vector of proportions.

n

The sum of the resulting integers.

random

If TRUE, ties will be broken at random, otherwise the first of the tied values will be used.

Details

This function implements an efficient rounding procedure to round approximate theory designs into replicated integer approximations.

Value

A vector of replications summing to n.
