I have the following code, gibbs <-function(m,theta = 0.25, lambda =0.55, n =1){ alpha <- 1.5 beta <- 1.5 gamma <- 1.5 x<- array(0,c(m+1, 3)) x[1,1] <- theta x[1,2] <- lambda x[1,3]<- n for(t in 2:(m+1)){ x[t,1] <- rbinom(1, x[t-1,3], x[t-1,1]) x[t,2]<-rbeta(1, x[t-1,1] + alpha, x[t-1,3] - x[t-1,1] + beta) x[t,3] <- rpois(1,(1 - x[t-1,1])*gamma) } x } gibbs(100)
it returns only 1 or 2 values of theta, some times NaN, this may be if any theta is greater than 1, which is used as the probability for the next rbinom(), so returns NaN. Can some one suggest to solve this problem?
