ABSTRACT
In simple random sampling every unit in the population has the equal chance of being included in the sample but if the
sampling units vary in their size then simple random sampling does not take into account the importance of larger units in the
population contradiction to this probability proportional to size sampling scheme gives more probability of inclusion to larger
units as compared to the smaller units in the sample. Therefore, Probability proportional to size sampling gives more efficient
estimator as compared to equal probability sampling scheme. In this article, my aim is to select a sample of units on the basis
of its size by using SAS and R software.
