\title{Random Sample From The Modulus Of A Function}
\description{
  \command{RRmcmc} draws a random sample from the
  modulus of any given function (provided the integral is finite).
}
\usage{
RRmcmc(phi, mcmc_n, sigma, normed, maxdensity, rand.loc, gibbs)
}
\arguments{
  \item{phi}{an arbitrary integrable function
  }
  \item{mcmc_n}{
    positive integer. Every \code{mcmc_n}th element of the MCMC chain
    is returned.
  }
  \item{sigma}{positive real number.
    The MCMC update is done by adding a normal variable with
    standard deviation \code{sigma}.
  }
  
  \item{normed}{logical.
    Only used if the value of the density is calculated.
    If \code{FALSE} the unnormed value given by \code{phi} is returned.

    Default: \code{FALSE}.
  }
  \item{maxdensity}{positive real number.
    The given density is truncated at \code{maxdensity}.

    Default: 1000.
  }
  
  \item{rand.loc}{logical. Internal. Do not change the value.
    
   Default: \code{FALSE}.
   }
 \item{gibbs}{logical. If \code{TRUE} only one component is updated at a
   time.
   
   Default: \code{FALSE}.
  }
}


\value{
 \command{\link{RRmcmc}} returns an object of class \code{\link[=RMmodel-class]{RMmodel}}.
}
\note{
 The use of \command{RRmcmc} is completely on the risk of the user. There is no
 way to check whether the integral of the modulus is finite.
