<h2>Consistent Random Samples and Permutations</h2>


<h3>Description</h3>

<p>
<code>resample</code> takes a sample of the specified size from the
elements of <code>x</code> using either with or without replacement.
</p>


<h3>Usage</h3>

<pre>
resample(x, size, replace = FALSE, prob = NULL)
</pre>


<h3>Arguments</h3>

<table summary="R argblock">
<tr valign="top"><td><code>x</code></td>
<td>
A numeric, complex, character or logical vector from which
to choose.</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"><td><code>size</code></td>
<td>
Non-negative integer giving the number of items to choose.</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"><td><code>replace</code></td>
<td>
Should sampling be with replacement?</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"><td><code>prob</code></td>
<td>
A vector of probability weights for obtaining the elements of
the vector being sampled.</td></tr>
</table>

<h3>Details</h3>

<p>
<code>resample</code> differs from the S/R <code>sample</code> function in
<code>resample</code> always considers <code>x</code> to be a vector of elements
to select from, while <code>sample</code> treats a vector of length one as a
special case and samples from <code>1:x</code>.  Otherwise, the functions
have identical behavior.
</p>


<h3>Value</h3>

If it is a LIST, use

<table summary="R argblock">
<tr valign="top"><td><code>comp1 </code></td>
<td>
Description of 'comp1'</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"><td><code>comp2 </code></td>

<pre>
##---- Should be DIRECTLY executable !! ----
##-- ==&gt;  Define data, use random,
##--    or do  help(data=index)  for the standard data sets.

## The function is currently defined as
function(x, n, ...)
  {
    if(length(x)==1)
      {
        if(n==1)
          x
        else
          stop("Requested sample of size ", n, " from list of length 1")
      }
    else
      sample(x, n, ...)
  }
</pre>
