The vec() function would work.

But it might be worth reviewing your code again. You should be storing your 
data such that you have a matrix of N samples (each of dimensionality D) stored 
as a DxN matrix. Call this matrix X. Then you access samples as X[:, j]. If you 
do this, your data structures will match the signatures of the methdos in 
Distributions.jl.
