R help - Jun 2004 - MCMC tutorials

Hi Ajay: 

A casual search of google using terms like "MCMC", "Markov
Chains", "Monte
Carlo", and "tutorial" pulled up over 4000 hits. A few links that
may
interest you, I thought, like: 

http://csep1.phy.ornl.gov/CSEP/MC/MC.html
http://www.stat.fi/isi99/proceedings/arkisto/varasto/gree0167.pdf
http://www.maths.soton.ac.uk/staff/Sahu/utrecht/
...
and so on. 

This one's a good start IMHO: 

http://www.statslab.cam.ac.uk/~mcmc/ 

Also, check out the following site since you love R:
