create.declaration: Creates variable declarations for Stan programs

In tkmckenzie/ikde: Iterative Kernel Density Estimation

Description

Creates variable declarations for Stan programs

Usage

create.declaration(var.name, var.type, var.dim)

Arguments

var.name	String indicating the name of the variable
var.type	String indicating the variable type and any restrictions
var.dim	String or number indicating the dimension of the variable

Details

This method allows for easy creation of variable declarations, accounting for semantic differences in declaring vectors vs. arrays.

If var.dim is a string, it should be in the form of dimension declarations in a Stan program (e.g., "[N, k]").

Value

A string for the resulting variable declaration.

Examples

create.declaration("foo", "real<lower=0>", 5)
create.declaration("bar", "vector", "[k]")
create.declaration("mat", "matrix", "[N, k]")
