Add 'JAGS' prior

Source: R/JAGS-prior-syntax.R

Adds priors to a 'JAGS' syntax.

JAGS_add_priors(syntax, prior_list)

Arguments

syntax

JAGS model syntax

prior_list

named list of prior distribution (names correspond to the parameter names)

Value

JAGS_add_priors returns a JAGS syntax.

Details

Syntax containing moment, inverse-moment, or inverse-gamma priors (dbt_invgamma) uses the BayesTools JAGS module. JAGS_fit() loads this module automatically; users running syntax returned by JAGS_add_priors() directly in JAGS need to load the module first.
