rASS: Adaptive Slice Sampling Algorithm With Stepping-Out Procedures

Description

rASS generates a sequence of random numbers by the adaptive slice sampling algorithm with stepping-out procedures.

Usage

rASS(n, x0 = 0, formula, w = 3)

Arguments

n

Desired sample size;

x0

Initial value;

formula

Target density function p(x);

w

Length of the coverage interval.
