Hi Sacha,
I was referring to the BRugs package, where I usually proceed as follows:
result = BRugsFit (...)
param_samples = samplesSample("param") (1)
But (1) takes a long time for big chains. So my question was specific to
BRugs, if there an alternative way to get the samples.
openbugs() mentioned by you seems to be from R2WinBUGS that I have never
used. I'll try that. Thanks for the suggestion.
Best,
Thiago
