+function r = multirnd(theta,k)
+%MULTIRND - Random vector from multinomial distribution.
+%   r = multirnd(theta,k) returns a vector randomly selected
+%   from the multinomial distribution with parameter vector
+%   theta, and count k (i.e. sum(r) = k).
+%
+%   Note: if k is unspecified, then it is assumed k=1.
