How do I set the dispersion parameter in poisson glm?
...ink with a known dispersion parameter. I do not want to estimate the dispersion parameter. I know what it is, so I simply want to fix it at a constant for this and other models to follow.

drawing samples based on a matching variable
Hi, everyone. I have what I hope will be a simple coding question. It seems this is a common job, but so far I've had trouble finding the answer in searches. I have two matrices (x and y) with a different number of observations in each. I need to draw a random sample without replacement of observations from x, and then, using a matching variable, draw a sample of equal size from y. It is the
