\title{The 'mnormt' package: summary information}
\description{
This package provides functions for computing the density and the distribution
function of multivariate normal and multivariate Student's \emph{t} variates
and for generating random vectors sampled from these distributions.
}
\details{
Probabilities are computed via a non-Monte Carlo method. Different routines
are used in the three cases \code{d=1, d=2, d>2}, if \code{d} denotes the
number of dimensions. }
