pbetap

Computes predictive distribution for number of successes of
 future binomial experiment
 with a beta prior distribution for the proportion.

models

A collection of functions helpful in learning the basic tenets of Bayesian statistical inference.  It contains functions for summarizing basic one and two parameter posterior distributions and predictive distributions.  It contains MCMC algorithms for summarizing posterior distributions defined by the user.  It also contains functions for regression models, hierarchical models, Bayesian tests, and illustrations of Gibbs sampling.
