Exact Optimal Allocation Algorithms for Stratified Sampling

Implements several exact methods for allocating optimal sample sizes when designing stratified samples. These methods are discussed in Wright (2012) and Wright (2017) .


Overview

This package implements several methods of allocation into strata for stratified sampling. In particular, they provide an alternative to Neyman's classical method to minimize variance which avoid rounding.
