#' Fit Vine copula models to matrices of effectiveness scores
#'
#' Fitting of and simulation from a copula model.
#'
#' @param n number of observations to simulate.
#' @param .effcop the \code{effcop} object representing the copula model (see \code{effcopFit}).
#' @param x a matrix or data frame of effectiveness scores to estimate dependence.
#' @param eff a list of effectiveness distributions to use for the margins.
#' @param ... other parameters for \code{\link[rvinecopulib]{vinecop}}, such as \code{family_set},
#'   \code{selcrit}, \code{trunc_lvl} and \code{cores}.
#' @return \code{effcopFit}: an object of class \code{effcop}, with the following components:
#'
#'   \tabular{rl}{
#'     \code{data} \tab the matrix of effectiveness scores used to fit the copula. \cr
#'     \code{pobs} \tab the matrix of pseudo-observations computed from \code{data}. This is stored
#'       because pseudo-observations are calculated breaking ties randomly
#'       (see \code{\link[rvinecopulib]{pseudo_obs}}). \cr
#'     \code{margins} \tab the list of marginal effectiveness distributions. \cr
#'     \code{cop} \tab the underlying copulas fitted with \code{\link[rvinecopulib]{vinecop}}.
#'   }
#' These components may be altered to gain specific simulation capacity, such as
#'   \link[=effTransform]{systems with the same expected value}.
#'
#' \code{reffcop}: a matrix of random scores.
#' @seealso \code{\link{effCont}} and \code{\link{effDisc}} for available distributions for the
#'   margins. See package \code{\link[rvinecopulib]{rvinecopulib}} for details on fitting
#'   the copulas.
