R: Construct a random Latin hypercube design

randomLHS {lhs} | R Documentation

## Construct a random Latin hypercube design

### Description

`randomLHS(4,3)` returns a 4x3 matrix with each column constructed as follows: A random permutation of (1,2,3,4) is generated, say (3,1,2,4) for each of K columns. Then a uniform random number is picked from each indicated quartile. In this example a random number between .5 and .75 is chosen, then one between 0 and .25, then one between .25 and .5, finally one between .75 and 1.

### Usage

    randomLHS(n, k, preserveDraw = FALSE)

### Arguments

`n` | the number of rows or samples
`k` | the number of columns or parameters/variables
`preserveDraw` | should the draw be constructed so that it is the same for variable numbers of columns?

### Value

a Latin hypercube sample

### Examples

    a <- randomLHS(5, 3)
