bias issue in sample() (PR 17494)
...to allowing the old behavior to be selected
- make the new behavior the default
- adjust documentation
- ???
Unfortunately I don't have enough free cycles to do this, but I can
help if someone else can take the lead.
There are two other places I found that might suffer from the same
issue, in walker_ProbSampleReplace (pointed out bu O & S) and in
src/nmath/wilcox.c. Both can be addressed by using R_unif_index. I
have done that for walker_ProbSampleReplace, but the wilcox change
might need adjusting to support the standalone math library and I
don't feel confident enough I'd get that right.
Best,...

Bias in R's random integers?
It doesn't seem too hard to come up with plausible ways in which this could
give bad results. Suppose I sample rows from a large dataset, maybe for
bootstrapping. Suppose the rows are non-randomly ordered, e.g. odd rows are
males, even rows are females. Oops! Very non-representative sample,
bootstrap p values are garbage.
