\title{Sampling importance resampling}
\description{
Implements sampling importance resampling for a multivariate
t proposal density.
}
\usage{
sir(logf,tpar,n,data)
}
\arguments{
\item{logf}{function defining logarithm of density of interest}
\item{tpar}{list of parameters of multivariate t proposal density including
the mean m, the scale matrix var, and the degrees of freedom df}
\item{n}{number of simulated draws from the posterior}
\item{data}{data and parameters used in the function logf}
}
\value{
matrix of simulated draws from the posterior where each row corresponds to a single draw
}
