Representing Hadamard Randomization

Description

Represents the randomization procedure Hadamard Randomization.

Usage

hadaPar(N, groups = LETTERS[1:2])

Arguments

Details

Hadamard randomization has been proposed by R.A. Bailey. The key idea is to use the columns of a special Hadamard Matrix as a randomization scheme. The implemented algorithm uses the Hadamard Matrix with N=12 columns proposed in the paper, see references.

Value

S4 object of the class hadaPar.

Note

getProb and getAllSeq are currently only supported for hadaPar with total sample size N=12.
