  <dc:subject>CRAN Task View: OfficialStatistics (http://CRAN.R-project.org/view=OfficialStatistics)</dc:subject>
  <dc:description>The pps package contains functions to select samples using
PPS (probability proportional to size) sampling. It also
includes a function for stratified simple random sampling, a
function to compute joint inclusion probabilities for
Sampford&apos;s method of PPS sampling, and a few utility functions.
