Description: Functions for simulating Markov chains to compute Markov
        chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) estimates of expectations with respect
        to a target distribution on a real-valued vector space. The
        package has built-in support for using Metropolis-Hastings
        transitions with random-walk, Langevin, Hamiltonian or Barker
        proposals, and is designed to be easy to extend with additional
        algorithms. Proposal shape and scale parameters can be
        automatically adapted in an initial warm-up stage. The package
        has a modular design allowing different algorithmic components
        such as proposals and adapters to be mixed and matched. If
        'BridgeStan's R interface
        <https://roualdes.us/bridgestan/latest/languages/r.html>,
        available on GitHub <https://github.com/roualdes/bridgestan>,
        is installed, then it can be used to specify the target
        distribution to sample from.
