Hi

I did not see the answer yet, probably nobody is much interested in such 
function, so I will try.

Why. If it works there is no problem until you encounter performance 
issues. If it does not work you shall specify what is wrong with it.

Many functions are vectorised (including choose and beta) so you could 
probably get rid of nested cycles but I am far from elaborating how to 
change your code and make it simpler (shorter, quicker ???)
