function samples_out=discrete_sampler(density,num_samples,replacement_option)
%
% Function that draws samples from a discrete density

% density - discrete probability density (should sum to 1)
% num_samples - number of samples to draw
% replacement_option: 1 for sampling with replacment, 0 for no replacment
