## Return a matrix of random samples from the univariate distribution which
## assumes the values in @var{v} with probabilities @var{p}.
##
## When called with a single size argument, return a square matrix with
## the dimension specified.  When called with more than one scalar argument the
## first two arguments are taken as the number of rows and columns and any
## further arguments specify additional matrix dimensions.  The size may also
## be specified with a vector of dimensions @var{sz}.
##
## If no size arguments are given then the result matrix is the common size of
## @var{v} and @var{p}.
