A function for creating scrambled Halton draws. The code is a translation of the [GAUSS](http://www.caee.utexas.edu/prof/bhat/FULL_CODES.htm) codes written by Professor Chandra Bhat. Note that the maximum number of dimensions for the scrambled Halton draws is limited to 16. This is because only permutations up to prime 16 are included in the permutation matrix. Extending to more than 16 dimensions can be achieved by including a different permutation matrix.

make_scrambled_halton(n_ind, n_draws, n_dim)

Arguments

n_ind

Number of individuals in your sample

n_draws

Number of draws per respondent

n_dim

Number of dimensions

Details

The permutations are based on the Braaten-Weller algorithm.
