R Documentation

Writing input for OpenBUGS

Write files containing initial values.

bugsInits(inits, numChains = 1, fileName, format="E", digits = 5)

`inits`	a list with `n.chains` elements; each element of the list is itself a list of starting values for the OpenBUGS model, or a function creating (possibly random) initial values
`numChains`	number of Markov chains
`fileName`	the filename(s), one for each chain. Defaults to ‘inits1.txt’, ..., ‘initsN.txt’ in the temporary directory of the current R session.
`format`	String to pass to `formatC` which controls formatting of numbers. The default `"E"` formats all numbers in scientific notation. The alternative `"fg"` uses a standard format.
`digits`	number of significant digits used for OpenBUGS input, see `formatC`

Invisibly returns the fileName(s).
