Hi,

The solution Matthias gave works perfectly when we are doing random sample of 
the dataframe without replacement. But it's not working with replacement. E.g. 
if I've the original dataframe of the form matrix(seq(1,100,100, 1) and want to 
select randomly 20 rows. With Matthias example, we can randomly sample that and 
the new matrix might look like this


matrix("1 2 3 21 29 36 37 40 45 53 55 56 71 72 79  82 90 96 97 99", 20,1).


But if I want a matrix of this form, (which can be possible with random 
sampling with replacement)


matrix("1 2 3 21 21 21 37 40 45 53 53 56 71 79 79  82 90 96 97 99", 20,1).


I'm not getting it.


I tried the following code:


data_ind = matrix(seq(1,nrow(actual_data), 1), nrow(bdframe_bt_subset_1), 1)

data_sample = sample(nrow(data_ind), 100, TRUE)

data_sample_matrix= matrix(data_sample, 100, 1)

a = matrix(0, (nrow(data_ind)- nrow(data_sample_matrix)), 1)

data_sample1 = rbind(data_sample, a)

b = removeEmpty(target=actual_data, margin="rows", select = data_sample1);

But this is not giving me the repeated row even though I can see in 
"data_sample_matrix" I've repeated position in the data.

I also tried the follow "sample.dlm" in "utils" folder, but that also not 
giving me the answer I'm looking for.

We can use the for-loop in this case using "data_sample_matrix" matrix. But 
want to avoid looping.

Can anyone please help?

Thank you!
Arijit

Thank you Matthias! You are most helpful!


Thanks again!

you can take for example a 1%  sample of rows via a permutation matrix
(specifically selection matrix) as follows

I = (rand(rows=nrow(X), cols=1, min=0, max=1) <= 0.01);
P = removeEmpty(target=diag(I), margin="rows");
Xsample = P %*% X;

or via removeEmpty and selection vector

I = (rand(rows=nrow(X), cols=1, min=0, max=1) <= 0.01);
Xsample = removeEmpty(target=X, margin="rows", select=I);

Both should be compiled internally to very similar plans.

Regards,
Matthias
