\name{fastflightcube}
\alias{fastflightcube}
\title{Fast flight phase for the cube method}
\description{Executes the fast flight phase
of the cube method (algorithm of Chauvet and Till, 2005, 2006).
The data are sorted following the argument \code{order}. Inclusion probabilities equal to
0 or 1 are tolerated.
}
\usage{fastflightcube(X,pik,order=1,comment=TRUE)}
\arguments{
\item{X}{matrix of auxiliary variables on which the sample must be balanced.}
\item{pik}{vector of inclusion probabilities.}
\item{order}{
1, the data are randomly arranged,\cr
2, no change in data order,\cr
3, the data are sorted in decreasing order.
}
\item{comment}{a comment is written during the execution if \code{comment} is \code{TRUE}.}
