What's the canonical way to sample with replacement from a vector in Mata? I'm trying to implement a bootstrap procedure. I've looked at jumble(), but that samples without replacement, and I'd prefer to avoid calling out to Stata proper if I can. I assume that scaling the results from uniform() in some fashion and using them as subscripts is the way to go, but I can't quite work out what the code should be.
Thanks!
