Package: relliptical 1.4.0

relliptical: The Truncated Elliptical Family of Distributions

It provides a function for random number generation from members of the truncated multivariate elliptical family of distributions, including truncated versions of the Normal, Student-t, Pearson type VII, Slash, Logistic, and related distributions. Additional distributions can be specified by supplying the density generating function. The package also computes first- and second-order moments, including the covariance matrix, for selected distributions. References used for this package: Galarza, C. E., Matos, L. A., Castro, L.
