Generates a Rectangular Lattice Design.

Source: R/fct_rectangular_lattice.R
rectangular_lattice.Rd

It randomly generates a rectangular lattice design across locations.

Usage

rectangular_lattice(
  t = NULL,
  k = NULL,
  r = NULL,
  l = 1,
  plotNumber = 101,
  locationNames = NULL,
  seed = NULL,
  data = NULL
)

Arguments

t

Number of treatments.

k

Size of incomplete blocks (number of units per incomplete block).

r

Number of blocks (full resolvable replicates).

l

Number of locations. By default l = 1.

plotNumber

Numeric vector with the starting plot number for each location. By default plotNumber = 101.

locationNames

(optional) Names for each location.

seed

(optional) Real number that specifies the starting seed to obtain reproducible designs.

data

(optional) Data frame with label list of treatments.

Value

A list with two elements.

  • infoDesign is a list with information on the design parameters.

  • fieldBook is a data frame with the rectangular lattice design field book.
