This function returns TRUE if Laplace's Demon is appeased by the
object of class demonoid, and FALSE otherwise. If
appeased, then the object passes several tests that indicate potential
convergence of the Markov chains.
is.appeased(x)This is an object of class demonoid.
The is.appeased function returns a logical value indicating
whether or not the supplied object passes several potential Markov
chain convergence criteria. If the object passes all criteria, then
Laplace's Demon is appeased, and the logical value returned is
TRUE.
After updating a model with the LaplacesDemon function,
an output object is created. The output object is of class
demonoid. The object may be passed to the Consort
function, which will apply several criteria regarding the potential
convergence of its Markov chains. If all criteria are met, then
Laplace's Demon is appeased. Otherwise, Laplace's Demon suggests R
code to be copy/pasted and executed. The Consort
function prints a large amount of information to the screen. The
is.appeased function may be applied as an alternative, though
it only informs the user as to whether or not Laplace's Demon was
appeased, as TRUE or FALSE.
