Produces a Monte Carlo sample from a continuous distribution of a random vector using a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm. In particular, an adaptive version of the Multiple-Try Metropolis algorithm of Liu at al. (2001) is implemented: details of the algorithm can be found in Fontaine and Bedard (2019). The sample can then be used to perform a Monte Carlo estimation of the expectation of a function of the random vector and standard MCMC techniques can be done (standard error estimation, diagnostic of convergence, etc.).
