#' The Scaled and Shifted Student t Distribution
#'
#' Density, distribution function, quantile function, and random generation for
#' the scaled and shifted t distribution with \code{df} degrees of freedom and
#' optional parameter \code{scale}. The parameterization is consistent with Gelman et al. (2013).
#'
#' If \code{mean} is omitted, it assumes the default value of \code{0}. If \code{sigma} is omitted, it assumes the default value of \code{1}.
#'
#' The scaled and shifted t distribution with parameters \code{df = n}, \code{mean =} \eqn{m} and \code{sigma =} \eqn{s} has density
#'
#' \deqn{f(x)= Gamma((n+1)/2)/Gamma(n/2)/\sqrt{n\pi}/s (1 + 1/n ((x - m)/s)^2)^{-(n+1)/2}}
#'
#' for \eqn{x \ge 0}, \eqn{n > 0} and \eqn{s > 0}. (Here \eqn{Gamma()} is the function implemented by R's
#' \code{gamma()} and defined in its help.
#'
#' The mean and variance are \eqn{E(X) = m} and \eqn{Var(X) = n/(n-2) s^2} for \eqn{n>2}.

#' @return
#' \code{dst} gives the density, \code{pst} gives the distribution function,
#' \code{qst} gives the quantile function, and \code{rst}
#' generates random deviates.
#'
#' Invalid arguments will result in return value \code{NaN}, with a warning.
#'
#' The length of the result is determined by \code{n} for \code{rst},
#' and is the maximum of the lengths of the numerical arguments for the
#' other functions.
#'
#' The numerical arguments other than \code{n} are recycled to the length
#' of the result. Only the first elements of the logical arguments are used.
