I am sorry that I was abusing this list. My point is
1) First, this code works for me for some simulation cases. I repeated the
simulation 1000 times, which then called this Rcpp function 1000 times at
least. And this code worked perfectly.
2) But in some other simulation case (here what I mean by simulation case,
just change some parameters to produce the data, but the data formats are
the same.), when I repeated the simulation 1000 times, at some point, for
example, at the 298th simulation, it did not work. Then in order to see
what is the problem, I just did the 298th simulation separately (since I
set the seed, it used the same data), but it worked well in this case. Then
I really have no idea what is going on there.

Best wishes!
