Proportional stratified sampling
If you are interested in subgroups within the population, then you may need to carefully control the counts of each subgroup within the population. Proportional stratified sampling results in subgroup sizes within the sample that are representative of the subgroup sizes within the population. It is equivalent to performing a simple random sample on each subgroup.
attrition_pop is available; dplyr is loaded.
