Constructor for the results of a SafeRank experiment

Usage

new_SafeRankExpt(
  rankNames = list(),
  marginNames = list(),
  countMethod = character(0),
  rankMethod = character(0),
  datasetName = character(0),
  experimentalMethod = character(0),
  countArgs = list(),
  nseats = integer(0),
  otherFactors = list(),
  unitFactors = list()
)

Arguments

rankNames: colnames for per-candidate ranks
marginNames: colnames for per-candidate margins
countMethod: secondary factor: counting method e.g. "stv"
rankMethod: secondary factor: ranking method e.g. "elected"
datasetName: secondary factor: name of the dataset of ballots
experimentalMethod: secondary factor: name of the method which simulated these elections e.g. "testFraction"
countArgs: secondary factor: args passed to countMethod
nseats: secondary factor: number of seats to be filled
otherFactors: other secondary factors, e.g. parameters to experimentalMethod
unitFactors: per-unit factors derived from PRNG of the experimental harness, e.g describing the ballots randomly deleted during testDeletions
