Overview

About

Maintained by Adelchi AzzaliniCRAN page ↗Website ↗

Functions are provided for computing the density and the distribution function of multi-dimensional normal and "t" random variables, possibly truncated (on one side or two sides), and for generating random vectors sampled from these distributions, except sampling from the truncated "t". Moments of arbitrary order of a multivariate truncated normal are computed, and converted to cumulants up to order 4. Probabilities are computed via non-Monte Carlo methods; different routines are used in the case d=1, d=2, d=3, d>3, if d denotes the dimensionality.

Changes in 2.1.2

Some declarations of variables, notably DOUBLE PRECISION TVTMFN in tvpack.f, have been inserted in Fortran source files, as pointed out by the CRAN group.
Fixing some syntax glitches in the Rd documentation files, pointed out by the CRAN group.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("mnormt", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-mnormt

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-mnormt

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-mnormt

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
