getparranges function

Description

A function to extract parameter ranges for creating a grid on which to evaluate the log-posterior, used in calibrating the MCMC. This function is not intended for general use.

Usage

getparranges(priors, leneta, mult = 1.96)

Arguments

priors

an object of class mcmcPriors

leneta

the length of eta passed to the function

mult

defaults to 1.96 so the grid formed will be mean plus/minus 1.96 times the standard deviation

Value

an appropriate range used to calibrate the MCMC: the mean of the prior for eta plus/minus 1.96 times the standard deviation
