Simulate a Levy Walk (LW). This model represent the movement of the Levy search strategy.

1	simmLW(n, mu, a)

`n`	one integer value for the sample size. Note that this sample size represent the number of final step lengths and turning angles wanted (when TAc = 0). The ltraj object returned will be longer because a minimum of 3 locations are required to calculate a relative turning angle
`mu`	one numeric (1<mu<=3) representing the mu value for the Pareto distribution of the step lengths
`a`	one numeric and positive value representing the minimum step length value

Simulates a LW and return a ltraj object
