Hi,

I often cherry-pick samples from a population, even though there are many talented statisticians out there who have developed appropriate sampling methods for sampling needs. To avoid this fallacy, I am forced to learn about probability sampling. In this post, I’ll talk about implementing cluster sampling in C. Cluster sampling is one of those handy statistical sampling methods for pulling samples from a population. There are other cool probability sampling techniques too—like simple random sampling, stratified random sampling, and others—but let’s focus on cluster sampling for now. ...
