bootstrap Function

public function bootstrap(stat, x, method, nsamples, alpha) result(rst)

Performs a bootstrap calculation on the supplied data set for the given statistic. The default implementation utlizes a random resampling with replacement. Other resampling methods may be defined by specifying an appropriate routine by means of the method input.

Arguments

Type	Intent	Optional	Attributes		Name
procedure(bootstrap_statistic_routine),	intent(in),		pointer	::	stat	The routine used to compute the desired statistic.
real(kind=real64),	intent(in),		dimension(:)	::	x	The N-element data set.
procedure(bootstrap_resampling_routine),	intent(in),	optional,	pointer	::	method	An optional pointer to the method to use for resampling of the data. If no method is supplied, a random resampling is utilized.
integer(kind=int32),	intent(in),	optional		::	nsamples	An optional input, that if supplied, specifies the number of resampling runs to perform. The default is 10 000.
real(kind=real64),	intent(in),	optional		::	alpha	An optional input, that if supplied, defines the significance level to use for the analysis. The default is 0.05.

Return Value type(bootstrap_statistics)

The resulting bootstrap_statistics type containing the confidence intervals, bias, standard error, etc. for the analyzed statistic.
