Hi Rick,

I have a problem choosing initial values for my simulation. I have a bivariate density with 3 parameters but I don't know how to see the graphs so I can make judgement. I followed your blog regarding the evaluation of the loglikelihood which is pretty good and very helpful. But graphing the log-likelihhood may give me a prouder image.
my code is below

Thank you,
Amal
