) const [virtual]

Draw multiple samples from the Pdf (overloaded)

Parameters:
list_sampleslist of samples that will contain result of sampling
num_samplesNumber of Samples to be drawn (iid)
methodSampling method to be used. Each sampling method is currently represented by a #define statement, eg. #define BOXMULLER 1
argsPointer to a struct representing extra sample arguments. "Sample Arguments" can be anything (the number of steps a gibbs-iterator should take, the interval width in MCMC, ... (or nothing), so it is hard to give a meaning to what exactly Sample Arguments should represent...
Todo:
replace the C-call "void * args" by a more object-oriented structure: Perhaps something like virtual Sample * Sample (const int num_samples,class Sampler)
Bug:
Sometimes the compiler doesn't know which method to choose!
