Hi Rcpp folks;
I am very new to c++ so I apologize in advance if this is a stupid question:
For a larger analysis I am trying to implement the R function sample() in c++ 
via RcppArmadillo. I want to use the resulting vector as an index to access a 
matrix. A simple dummy example of what I am trying to do is below. By breaking 
the code into several pieces I have been able to determine that the problem 
lies with the vector produced by sample() ('guys' in the example below) and the 
way I am attempting to use it as an index for the matrix tmpMat. I have tried 
making 'um', 'unmarked' and 'guys' integers/IntegerVectors but that didn't 
resolve my problem either. 

The function compiles fine but when I run it in R I get this nondescript error 
message: 'Error in fun(y, n, J, lam, um) :'

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Rahel
