Determining if this Sample Should be Saved

Description

A method that determines if a sample from a given iteration should be saved. The sample should be saved if and only if: it is not in burn-in period and it matches the step.

Usage

saveSample(object, iteration, ...)

## S4 method for signature 'McmcOptions'
saveSample(object, iteration, ...)

Arguments

object	(McmcOptions) object based on which the answer is determined.
iteration	(count) the current iteration index.
...	not used.

Value

TRUE if this sample should be saved.

Functions

• saveSample(McmcOptions): determine if a sample should be saved.

Examples

# Set up the MCMC option in order to have a burn-in of 10000 iterations and
# then take every other iteration up to a collection of 10000 samples.
my_options <- McmcOptions(burnin = 10000, step = 2, samples = 10000)

size(my_options)
saveSample(my_options, iteration = 5)
