Hi and thanks for your replies (I'm sorry to be a bit late......), I think I might be being a bit thick on this, but I truly would not be asking if I had not already gone through the manuals and examples in the web. I just want to be sure I got Jorge's example.
the function <function(v,index)mean(v[index])> is a generic function used to tell boot to take a random sample with replacement from the data, and the "index" vector is generated by the boot function and takes values 1:N (N being the e.g., length of the vector of the data being resampled). Is this correct? Thanks again for your help.
