Hi,
I'm trying to randomize a sequence of trials for an experimental
design. The trials consist of values for each of two factors. As is
there are 30 combinations of the two factors, and I want them to be
ordered randomly but with the requirement that for one of the factors,
the value can never be the same as the previous value.
I'm currently randomizing my dataframe by using:
x[sample(1:nrow(x), nrow(x),]
Output example, on rows 2 and 3 the angle value is the same (the
situation I wish to prevent):
Distance Angle
9 90
9 45
10 45
11 30
8 60
7 0
8 30
10 0
10 60
... ...
Can anyone recommend a simple way to do this? (Bonus if it could be
implemented for more than a single column!)
Thanks in advance,
Jon
