similar to: The BRugs 0.7-4 interface to OpenBUGS released

Hi, this is the first announcement of a *developer version* of the R package BRugs, which is based on OpenBUGS 2.1.0. OpenBUGS 2.1.0 has been released earlier this week (http://mathstat.helsinki.fi/openbugs/). BRugs contains a complete OpenBUGS installation as well as R code to access OpenBUGS functionality from R. Simply install the package, load it and say ?BRugs and ?BRugsFit

Hi. I am trying to analyze with BRugs the Box-Tiao variance components example in WinBUGS.

I've run into persistent problems with OpenBUGS crashing when using BRugs .53 and .71, and am hoping someone has suggestions. There is obviously something unusual going on in my environment, but I'm at a loss as to where to begin to try to solve it. In a nutshell, what happens is that, as soon as I call "modelCheck()" in BRugs, it gets an error or crashes ... but only some of

Hello. In this post: http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/Rhelp10/2010-March/233815.html Uwe Ligges suggests using BRugs rather than R2WinBUGS under windows. He also notes that it is not in the main CRAN repository, but it is in "extras" which is a default repository under windows. I have OpenBUGS 3.1.0 (the latest that has a native Linux version which is no longer called linBUGS)

I installed XCode, XQuartz and OpenBUGS on my Mac using WINE. When I tried to test my installation I received the following error. If correct, BRugs does not exist for R 2.15.1. Is there a means to get arrange this problem? Thanks Paul The following code is an example from R Help bugs: > schools.sim <- bugs(data, inits, + parameters, model.file, n.chains=3, + n.iter=1000, +

Hi, When I used BRugs (Version 0.8.0), I found a bug about the findOpenBUGS way using "OpenBUGS_PATH". I don't know how to contact the developer, so I think someone here may help me. The issue is: I want to use OpenBUGS/BRugs in a portable way in windows, so I set the environment variable "OpenBUGS_PATH" to tell BRugs the path to OpenBugs. But the R library BRugs is still

Hi All, I am trying to figure out how to use R-Coda with the output from OpenBugs. I have installed and loaded the packages BRugs and R2WinBUGS. I have successfully run a simple Bayes model in WinBUGS using R2WinBUGS' "bugs" and have used "read.bugs" to build the coda object. I can successfully switch to OpenBugs and run the same model and get the basic summary

Hi, I have a strange behaviour of openBUGS and WinBUGS when I start them from R. Version: R: 2.10.1 openBUGS: 3.07 WinBUGS: 1.43 R2WinBUGS: 2.1-16 BRugs: 0.5-3 I have a model and data without initial start values. If I use the stand alone versions of openBUGS and WinBUGS I don't have any problems and I get what I want. If I use function bugs() from R2WinBUGS- resp. BRugs-Library then

Hello, I'm running R version 3.4.2 on Windows. I have a program written in BUGS which I can successfully run from the R2WinBUGS package. I would also like to try and use the same package to use OpenBUGS (version 3.2.3) rather than WinBUGS. The initial output looks ok (shown below), but the OpenBUGS executable is never started. Instead I see a process running called ?BugsHelper.exe *32? in

Hi all, I've managed to get JAGS working on my Ubuntu Hardy Linux with a 32-bit computer and AMD processors using R 2.8.1. JAGS is great. I've read that JAGS is the fastest, but that hasn't been my experience. At any rate, I have more experience with WinBUGS under Windows and would like a version of that working as well. It seems like I've read a lot on the subject and tried a

To All, I am using the BRugs package. In running the meta file BRugsFit() with a syntactically correct model .txt file, I see the message: Error in FUN(X[[1]], ...) : .C(..): 'type' must be "real" for this format I haven't found information on this kind of error either here or on the OpenBUGS/WinBUGS/BRugs bulletin boards. If there is a better place to post this

Respected Sir/Madam, I am a research scholar of Department of Statistics, University Of Calcutta. I had downloaded the latest version of "BRugs", and installed it in R 2.15.1 both in 32 and 64 bits with the help of openBUGS 3.2.2. My problem is that one of the programmes which requires the package "BRugs" is giving me an error given below:

Dear list, I'm trying to embed OpenBUGS in an R package for use of it on 64-bit Linux. In order to get the CLI working one has to compile C code contained in $OpenBUGS/Manuals/CBugs.html (copied to say CBugs.c) using gcc -m32 -o bugs CBugs.c -ldl I put the OpenBUGS distribution in the ./inst subdirectory of the package root. Where should I now put the CBugs.c and how
