does ctrl f select cells randomly?
I am doing statistical analysis and as part of explaining my research
methodology I have to clarify my sampling method. I selected my sample from a large spreadsheet by using the ctrl f tool to look for care homes within different geographical areas. the first home that came up for that area i selected and entered into my sample. My supervisor is asking whether this was random sampling ie how does ctrl f come up with its selection? alphabetically or the first one it comes across in that spreadsheet or by some other method? Can anyone help? Thanks |
