stratifyR 1.0-3

The goal of stratifyR is to construct stratification boundaries using either the continuous variable in your data or a hypothetical distribution for your variable.

Installation

You can install stratifyR using:

install.packages("stratifyR")

Example

This is a basic example which shows you how to solve a common stratification problem:

library(stratifyR)
#> Loading required package: fitdistrplus
#> Loading required package: MASS
#> Loading required package: survival
#> Loading required package: zipfR
#> Loading required package: actuar
#> 
#> Attaching package: 'actuar'
#> The following objects are masked from 'package:stats':
#> 
#>     sd, var
#> The following object is masked from 'package:grDevices':
#> 
#>     cm
#> Loading required package: triangle
#> Loading required package: mc2d
#> Loading required package: mvtnorm
#> 
#> Attaching package: 'mc2d'
#> The following objects are masked from 'package:base':
#> 
#>     pmax, pmin
## basic example code using data
data(sugarcane)
Production <- sugarcane$Production
hist(Production)

res <- strata.data(Production, h = 2, n=1000)
#> The program is running, it'll take some time!

The functions can be dynamically used to visualize the the strata boundaries, for 2 strata, over the density (or observations) of the “mag” variable from the quakes data (with purrr and ggplot2 packages loaded).

library(stratifyR)
library(ggplot2)
res <- strata.distr(h=2, initval=4, dist=2.4, distr = "lnorm", 
          params = c(meanlog=1.52681032, sdlog=0.08503554), n=300, N=1000)
#> The program is running, it'll take some time!
ggplot(data=quakes, aes(x = mag)) +
      geom_density(fill = "blue", colour = "black", alpha = 0.3) +
      geom_vline(xintercept = res$OSB, linetype = "dotted", color = "red")

Read the stratifyR vignette for a complete documentation and many more examples using 10 different distributions.
