Arguments

control

bar_type

"rho" (for change point locations) or "eta" (for regressors).

nr

integer number of unique realizations, needed when bar_type = "eta".

pbar

The progress bar object returned from prep_pbar.

Value

prep_pbar: the initialized progress bar object.

update_pbar: the ticked-forward pbar.

Examples

  pb <- prep_pbar(control = list(nit = 2)); pb

  pb <- update_pbar(pb); pb
