vech

This function takes a symmetric matrix and extracts a list of all lower
triangular elements.

manip

Contains functions to perform Bayesian
inference using posterior simulation for a number of
statistical models. Most simulation is done in compiled C++
written in the Scythe Statistical Library Version 1.0.3. All
models return 'coda' mcmc objects that can then be summarized
using the 'coda' package. Some useful
utility functions such as density functions,
pseudo-random number generators for statistical
distributions, a general purpose Metropolis sampling algorithm,
and tools for visualization are provided.
