The toolbox includes:
1. fast random number generators from the truncated univariate and multivariate student/normal distributions;
2. (Quasi-) Monte Carlo estimator of the cumulative distribution function of the multivariate student/normal;
3. accurate computation of the quantile function of the normal distribution in the extremes of its tails.
