R: Computes the top trading cycle algorithm

cpp_wrapper_ttc {matchingR} | R Documentation

## Computes the top trading cycle algorithm

### Description

This is the C++ wrapper for the top trading cycle algorithm. Users should not call this function directly, but instead use `toptrading`.

### Usage

    cpp_wrapper_ttc(pref)

### Arguments

`pref` | is a matrix with the preference order of all individuals in the market. If there are `n` individuals, then this matrix will be of dimension `n` by `n`. The `i,j`th element refers to `j`'s `i`th most favorite partner. Preference orders must be specified using C++ indexing (starting at 0).

### Details

This function uses the top trading cycle algorithm to find a stable trade between agents, each with some indivisible good, and with preferences over the goods of other agents. Each agent is matched to one other agent, and matchings are not necessarily two-way. Agents may be matched with themselves.

### Value

A vector of length `n` corresponding to the matchings being made, so that e.g. if the `4`th element is `5` then agent `4` was matched to agent `6`. This vector uses C++ indexing that starts at 0.
