Contemporaneous correlations using different draws from the postierior

Use

function output_cell =posterior_function_demo(xparam1,M_,options_,oo_,estim_params_,bayestopt_,dataset_,dataset_info)
% output_cell =posterior_function_demo(xparam1,M_,options_,oo_,estim_params_,bayestopt_,dataset_,dataset_info);
% This is an example file computing statistics on the prior/posterior draws. The
% function allows read-only access to all Dynare structures. However, those
% structures are local to this function.  Changing them will not affect
% other Dynare functions and you cannot use them to pass results to other
% Dynare functions.
% The function takes one and only one output argument: an 1 by n cell.
% Using functions like cell2mat, the contents of the cell can be easily
% transformed back to matrices. See the fs2000_posterior_function.mod for
% an example

% INPUTS
%   xparam1                      Current parameter draw
%   M_           [structure]     Matlab's structure describing the Model (initialized by dynare, see @ref{M_}).
%   options_     [structure]     Matlab's structure describing the options (initialized by dynare, see @ref{options_}).
%   oo_          [structure]     Matlab's structure gathering the results (initialized by dynare, see @ref{oo_}).
%   estim_params_[structure]     Matlab's structure describing the estimated_parameters (initialized by dynare, see @ref{estim_params_}).
%   bayestopt_   [structure]     Matlab's structure describing the parameter options (initialized by dynare, see @ref{bayestopt_}).
%   dataset_     [structure]     Matlab's structure storing the dataset
%   dataset_info [structure]     Matlab's structure storing the information about the dataset

% Output
%   output_cell  [1 by n cell]   1 by n Matlab cell allowing to store any
%                                desired computation or result (strings, matrices, structures, etc.)
