Stan Code for Bayesian models

Description

stancode is a generic function that can be used to generate Stan code for Bayesian models. Its original use is within the brms package, but new methods for use with objects from other packages can be registered to the same generic.

Usage

stancode(object, ...)

make_stancode(formula, ...)

Arguments

object

An object whose class will determine which method to apply. Usually, it will be some kind of symbolic description of the model form which Stan code should be generated.

...

Further arguments passed to the specific method.

formula

Synonym of object for use in make_stancode.

Details

See stancode.default for the default method applied for brms models. You can view the available methods by typing: methods(stancode) The make_stancode function is an alias of stancode.

Value

Usually, a character string containing the generated Stan code. For pretty printing, we recommend the returned object to be of class c("character", "brmsmodel").
