Dr. Bolker I just wrote it yesterday. Thank you anyway. However do you have some ideas about sampling from restricted beta distribution. say from beta(a, b) but value between m and n. Now I generate lots of samples from beta(a, b) and then choose value between m and n, but it is very time-consuming. Do you have some good ideas? Thanks again!
