Exercise.6 Selection of simple random sampling using lottery method and random numbers Simple Random sampling (SRS) The basic probability sampling method is the simple random sampling. It is the simplest of all the probability sampling methods. It is used when the population is homogeneous. When the units of the sample are drawn independently with equal probabilities. The sampling method is known as Simple Random Sampling (SRS). Thus if the population consists of N units, the probability of selecting any unit is 1/N. A theoretical definition of SRS is as follows Suppose drawn sample of size n from a population ...
