Is there a package that implements sampling for the multivariate hypergeometric distribution?

There doesn’t seem to be a package that implements the multivariate hypergeometric distribution. IYou can use this distribution defined in `scipy.stats`, via Pycall.jl :[[scipy.stats.multivariate\_hypergeom — SciPy v1.10.1 Manual](https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.stats.multivariate_hypergeom.html)]([Numpy and Scipy Documentation — Numpy and Scipy documentation](https://docs.scipy.org/doc) /scipy/reference/generated/scipy.stats.multivariate\_hypergeom.html).

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I did some searching but also came up empty. I hacked together something specific for my use case (don’t want to go through pycall). It seems to be a conspicuous oversight in StatsBase.
