\title{The Horvitz-Thompson estimator}
\description{Computes the Horvitz-Thompson estimator of the population total.}
\usage{HTestimator(y,pik)}
\arguments{
\item{y}{vector of the variable of interest; its length is equal to n, the sample size.}
\item{pik}{vector of the first-order inclusion probabilities; its length is equal to n, the sample size.}
