Dear list,

I would like to do some simulation with a truncated multivariate
t-distribution. I found "rtmvt" in package tmvtnorm.  I am not sure how to
specify the degrees of freedom parameter. I estimated the mean vector (with
6 elements) and covariance matrix (6 X 6) from a dataset with 46 subjects.
Now I want to simulate 100 subjects. So the degrees of freedom should be
46-6=40 or 100-6=94 or some other value? Thanks a lot.
