It is a Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm. The program can handle matrices of up to 1024 rows and 64 columns. A special option allows to sample square matrices with given marginals and fixed main diagonal, a problem prominent in social network analysis. In all cases the stationary distribution is uniform. The user has control on the serial dependency.}, number={4}, journal={Journal of Statistical Software}, author={Verhelst, Norman and Hatzinger, Reinhold and Mair, Patrick}, year={2007}, pages={1–14} }
