read.openbugs

<code>read.openbugs</code> reads Markov Chain Monte Carlo output in
 the CODA format produced by OpenBUGS.
This is a convenience wrapper around the function <code>read.coda</code>
 which allows you to read all the data output by OpenBUGS by
 specifying only the file stem.

file

Provides functions for summarizing and plotting the
output from Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulations, as
well as diagnostic tests of convergence to the equilibrium
distribution of the Markov chain.
