rASS: Adaptive Slice Sampling Algorithm With Stepping-Out...

In AdapSamp: Adaptive Sampling Algorithms

Description

rASS generates a sequence of random numbers by the adaptive slice sampling algorithm with stepping-out procedures.

Usage

rASS(n, x0 = 0, formula, w = 3)

Arguments

n	Desired sample size;
x0	Initial value;
formula	Target density function p(x);
w	Length of the coverage interval.
