dnBernoulli - Bernoulli Distribution

The Bernoulli distribution represents a weighted coin toss.

Usage

dnBernoulli(Probability p)

Arguments

p : Probability (pass by const reference)
The probability of success.

Domain Type

Natural

Details

The Bernoulli distribution takes a parameter p, between 0 and 1, and returns 1 with probability p and 0 with probability (1 - p).

Example

p ~ dnBeta(1.0,1.0)
x ~ dnBernoulli(p)
x.clamp(1)
moves[1] = mvSlide(p, delta=0.1, weight=1.0)
monitors[1] = screenmonitor(printgen=1000, separator = "        ", x)
mymodel = model(p)
mymcmc = mcmc(mymodel, monitors, moves)
mymcmc.burnin(generations=20000,tuningInterval=100)
mymcmc.run(generations=200000)
