Dear All,
I would like to ask for your help on "reproducibility of random sampling with
replacement". For example, one re-samples the rows with replacement of a residual
matrix and uses the new residual matrix thus obtained to produce a statistic ; repeat
this for a certain number of times.
My questions: will the above produce ever be reproducible by setting a seed?
Yes.
Namely, Given the same residual matrix, Ted applies the above process
and so does Jack, will they get the same results by setting a seed?
My attempt: setting seed does not freeze the command "sample" from getting
different samples,
Yes it does, you are simply not setting the seed before the first for loop.

as from the codes:
====
x= 1:20
S = matrix(0,5,20)
for (i in 1:5) {
S[i,] = sample(x, replace=FALSE)
}
set.seed(123)
T = matrix(0,5,20)
for (i in 1:5) {
T[i,] = sample(x, replace=FALSE)
}
sum(S==T)
===
I would appreciate any comments and/or suggestions on this.
Regards,
Chee
