I've a dataframe with 100 rows and 20 columns and want to randomly sample 5 times 10 consecutive rows, e.g. 10:19, 25:34, etc. With: sample_n( df, 5 ) I'm able to extract 5 unique, randomly sampled rows, but don't know how to sample consecutive rows. Any help? Thanks!

You could so something like:
#sample data
df <- data.table(value = 1:100000)
#function which sampled consecutive rows (x = dataframe, rows = nr of consecutive rows, nr = amount of times you want to sample consecutive rows)
sample_fun <- function(x, rows, nr){
#maximum number which can be sampled
numbers <- 1:(nrow(x) - rows)
#randomly sample 5 numbers
sampled.numbers <- sample(numbers, nr)
#convert to vector (5 consecutive)
sampled.rows <- lapply(sampled.numbers, function(x){seq(x, (x rows-1), 1)})
sampled.rows <- do.call(c, sampled.rows)
#sample and return
result <- x[sampled.rows,]
return(result)
}
sample_fun(x = df, rows = 5, nr = 2)

You don't mention if this can include replacement (i.e. if you sample 10:19, can you then also sample 15:24?). You also don't mention if you can sample anything above row 91, which would mean that sample of 10 gets cut off (i.e. 98,99,100 would only be 3 consecutive rows unless you want that to loop back to row 1). Assuming you can sample any value with replacement, the solution can be done in one line:
sapply(sample(1:100,5),function(x){seq(x,x 9)})
This applies the sequence function to each of 5 individually sampled numbers. The output will be a matrix, where each column is a sample of 10 consecutive rows, but as noted, these will potentially overlap, or go above 100.
If you want a solution where the rows will not overlap at all, and avoiding values over 100, without making values above 91 less likely to be sampled, this actually gets kind of trick, but I think the code below should work. You cant just sample from 1:91 without affect probability of your random sample, because then this means a value like 100 actually only has a 1/91 probability of being sampled (the sample value has to be 91), where other values don't involve that same constraint. This solution makes it so all rows are equally likely to be sampled.
Rows=c(1:100,1:100)
SampleRows=matrix(0,nrow=10,ncol=5)
for(i in 1:ncol(SampleRows)){
SampledValue=sample(Rows,1)
RowsIndex=min(which(Rows==SampledValue))
Sequence=Rows[RowsIndex:(RowsIndex 9)]
SampleRows[,i]=Sequence
Rows=Rows[!(Rows %in% Sequence)]
}
This approach creates a vector that sequences from 1:100, repeated twice (variable Rows), you'll see why this is important in a bit. For each of 5 iterations (corresponding to 5 samples), we take a sampled value from Rows, which will be a number 1:100, we then figure out where that number is in Rows, and take all 9 values next to it. In the first sample this will always be 10 consecutive numbers (e.g. 20:29). But then we remove those sampled values from Rows. If we happen to get the next sample as a value that would lead to overlap (like 18), then instead it samples (18,19,30,31,32,33,34...) since 20:29 have been removed. We need to do 1:100 twice in Rows, so that if we sample a value like 99, it resets from 100, back to 1.
If you want your output in a vector,throw in this at the end
sort(as.vector(SampleRows))
Let me know if this works for the needs of your problem.
