sampler

It creates a sampler for the <code>x</code> object. It returns a function
that accepts a parameter <code>n</code> denoting the number of samples
to draw from the <code>x</code> object and also any additional parameters
<code>...</code> are passed to the generated function.

Provides an algebra over probability distributions enabling
composition, sampling, and automatic simplification to closed forms.
Supports normal, exponential, multivariate normal, and empirical
distributions with operations like addition and subtraction that
automatically simplify when mathematical identities apply (e.g., the
sum of independent normal distributions is normal). Uses S3 classes for
distributions and R6 for support objects.
