as.rv.bugs: Coerce a bugs object into Random Variable Objects

Description

as.rv.bugs coerces an R2WinBUGS object to a list of rv objects or to a named rv object (vector). as.rvsummary.bugs works similarly but coerces the resulting rv objects into rvsummary objects.

Usage

# S3 method for bugs
as.rv(x, list.=TRUE, …)
  # S3 method for bugs
as.rvsummary(x, list.=TRUE, …)

Arguments

x
a bugs (R2WinBUGS) object
list.
logical; return a list of rv objects instead of a single rv object (vector)?
…
(ignored)

Value

If list.=TRUE, a named list of random vectors or a named random vector, otherwise a random vector. (Usually one would prefer a list.)f
