Simple, Optimal Algorithms for RandomSampling Without Replacement
Description:
Consider the fundamental problem of drawing a simple random sample (SRS) of size k without replacement from [n] := {1, . . . , n}. Although a number ofclassical algorithms exist for this problem, we construct algorithms that are even simpler, easier to implement, and have optimal space and time complexity.
