These functions are used to calculate running means, standard deviations and quantiles.
summarySet(node)
summaryStats(node)
summaryClear(node)summaryStats returns a data frame with columns:
means
standard deviations
0.025 quantiles
medians
0.975 quantiles
sample sizes
Character vector containing names of a variables in the model.
summarySet creates monitor(s) that starts recording the running totals for node.
summaryStats displays the running means, standard deviations,
and 2.5%, 50% (median) and 97.5% quantiles for node.
Note that these running quantiles are calculated via an approximate algorithm
and should therefore be used with caution.
summaryClear removes the monitor(s) calculating running totals for node.
These functions are less powerful and general than the samples functions (e.g., see samplesSet),
but they also require much less storage (an important consideration when many variables and/or long runs are of interest).
