Question

Your friend is interested in generating a bootstrap sample from some original sample by sampling its observation indices. But you observe that he types sample(n,n,replace=TRUE) in R (where n is the original sample size). You argue that he should type sample(n,n,replace=FALSE) instead. Who is correct?

   

Both operations are acceptable and give the desired result. The replace input argument here is redundant and would only matter if we are carrying out cross-validation.

   

You are both wrong. You need to use more information in order to be able to generate a legitimate sample.

   

You are right. The sampling has to be done without replacement.

   

Your friend is right. Sampling without replacement will give identical estimates with respect to the original sample.
