mcmc {coda} | R Documentation |
The function `mcmc' is used to create a Markov Chain Monte Carlo object. The data are taken to be a vector, or a matrix with one column per variable.
An mcmc object may be summarized by the summary
function
and visualized with the plot
function.
MCMC objects resemble time series (ts
) objects and have
methods for the generic functions time
, start
,
end
, frequency
and window
.
mcmc(data= NA, start = 1, end = numeric(0), thin = 1) as.mcmc(x) is.mcmc(x)
data |
a vector or matrix of MCMC output |
start |
the iteration number of the first observation |
end |
the iteration number of the last observation |
thin |
