func_size.boot {r4lineups}

Bootstrapped Functional Size

Description

This function is a base function for the bootstrapping that ensues to compute bootstrapped confidence intervals for the estimate of functional size

Usage

func_size.boot(lineup_vec, d = d, target_pos)

Arguments

lineup_vec

A numeric vector of lineup choices

d

Indices for bootstrap resampling

target_pos

A scalar, representing position of target in lineup. Must be declared by user

Details

Function is called bootstrap resampling using boot function (in package 'boot') This function is never called by the user - it is called in the functional size master function
