bcf: Bayesian Coin Flip

Description Details

Description

The bcf package simulates turn-based head-to-head competitions by approximating such games as simple coin flips. Each player or team is modeled as a coin with some probability distribution for landing heads-up in a given flip. The player or team that obtains a Heads result first wins, and ties are broken by running sub-games among the participating players as necessary.

Details

Players' or teams' posterior distributions are obtained via Approximate Bayesian Computation (abc_coin_flip_game').
