Dear Friends,
I have a matrix of size 5000 X 20. The first two columns are indicator
variables taking the value of either 0 or 1. Let us call the first two columns
Y1 and Y2.
I need to randomly sample 1000 rows with all the associated columns, in other
words my new matrix should be of size 1000 X 20. I realize that using this
command
newmat <- mainmat[sample(1000,replace=F),]
achieves this. However, I would like to make sure that both Y1 and Y2 have more
or less an equal amount of 0's and 1's. At present when I sample, I get cases
where sometimes all my Y2's are 0. Is there any way to accomodate this problem.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Anup
