\title{Simulated draws from a bivariate density function on a grid}
\description{
For a general two parameter density defined on a grid, simulates a random sample.
}
\usage{
simcontour(logf,limits,data,m)
}
\arguments{
\item{logf}{function that defines the logarithm of the density}
\item{limits}{limits (xlo, xhi, ylo, yhi) that cover the joint probability density}
\item{data}{vector or list of parameters associated with the function logpost}
\item{m}{size of simulated sample}
}
\value{
\item{x}{vector of simulated draws of the first parameter}
\item{y}{vector of simulated draws of the second parameter}
}
