Bayesian Statistics: An Introduction: R programs
Computer programs (in R) relating to the book
The R language is
available free. These programs should work equally well in
S-plus.
Many of them make use of the HDR routines in the file
hdr.txt (improved on 10 January 2007 as
a result of comments by Jacob Colvin). A useful book for Bayesians
using the R language is J Albert,
Bayesian Computation with R, Springer-Verlag 2007;
see also the packages
LearnBayes,
R2WinBUGS,
boa and coda.
A useful A5 reference card for R is available here as
pdf, PostScript or
LaTeX source.
