BuildTree: Build trees

In jodie0399/NUTS: Hamiltonian Monte Carlo and No-U-Turn Sampler with Dual Averaging

Usage

BuildTree(theta, r, u, v, j, epsilon, L, joint0)

Arguments

theta	starting position
r	starting momentum
u	a slice variable, which is used to simplify the implementation
v	a randomly generated value, which is used to determine the direction of movement
j	the height of a tree
epsilon	step size
joint0	to avoid computing the same value repeatedly, we compute joint0=log0- 0.5*(r0

a list of variables. It includes updated leftmost and rightmost states. It also returns updated values which are used to improve memory efficience. This function builds the tree for NUTS
