A stratified sample with a group size below the sample size in R

Question

I have market response data in the format:

head(df)
    ID  market  q1  q2
    470 France  1   3
    625 Germany 0   2
    155 Italy   1   6
    648 Spain   0   5
    862 France  1   7
    699 Germany 0   8
    460 Italy   1   6
    333 Spain   1   5
    776 Spain   1   4

and the following frequencies:

 table(df$market)
    France  140
    Germany 300
    Italy   50
    Spain   75

I need to create a data frame with a sample of 100 responses to the market and all answers without replacement in cases where there are less than 100.

So

table(df_new$market)
        France  100
        Germany 100
        Italy   50
        Spain   75

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

The following looks valid:

set.seed(10); DF = data.frame(c1 = sample(LETTERS[1:4], 25, T), c2 = runif(25))
freqs = as.data.frame(table(DF$c1))
freqs$ss = ifelse(freqs$Freq >= 5, 5, freqs$Freq)
#> freqs
#  Var1 Freq ss
#1    A    4  4
#2    B   11  5
#3    C    7  5
#4    D    3  3
res = mapply(function(x, y) DF[sample(which(DF$c1 %in% x), y), ], 
             x = freqs$Var1, y = freqs$ss, SIMPLIFY = F)
do.call(rbind, res)
#   c1        c2
#5   A 0.3558977
#17  A 0.2289039
#6   A 0.5355970
#13  A 0.9546536
#3   B 0.2395891

#11  C 0.7477465
