'scan_multi_onechr' calculates log likelihood for d-variate phenotype model fits. Inputted parameter 'start_snp' indicates where in the 'probs' object to start the scan.

scan_multi_onechr(
  probs,
  pheno,
  kinship = NULL,
  addcovar = NULL,
  start_snp = 1,
  n_snp = dim(probs)[3],
  max_iter = 10000,
  max_prec = 1/1e+08,
  cores = 1
)

`probs`	an array of founder allele probabilities for a single chromosome
`pheno`	a matrix of phenotypes
`kinship`	a kinship matrix for one chromosome
`addcovar`	a matrix, n subjects by c additive covariates
`start_snp`	index of where to start the scan within probs
`n_snp`	the number of (consecutive) markers to include in the scan
`max_iter`	maximum number of iterations for EM algorithm
`max_prec`	stepwise precision for EM algorithm. EM stops once incremental difference in log likelihood is less than max_prec
`cores`	number of cores for parallelization

a tibble with d + 1 columns. First d columns indicate the genetic data (by listing the marker ids) used in the design matrix; last is log10 likelihood
