apollo (version 0.1.0)

apollo_attach: Attaches predefined variables.

Description

Attaches parameters and data to allow users to refer to individual variables by name without reference to the object they are contained in.

Usage

apollo_attach(apollo_beta, apollo_inputs)

Arguments

apollo_beta

Named numeric vector. Names and values for parameters.

apollo_inputs

List grouping most common inputs. Created by function apollo_validateInputs.

Value

Nothing.

Details

This function should be called at the beginning of apollo_probabilities to make writing the log-likelihood more user-friendly. If used, then apollo_detach should be called at the end apollo_probabilities, or more conveniently, using on.exit. apollo_attach attaches apollo_beta, database, draws, and the output of apollo_randCoeff and apollo_lcPars, if they are defined by the user.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
apollo_beta  <- c(b1=0.3, b2=-0.5)
apollo_fixed <- c()
apollo_control <- list(indivID="id", mixing = FALSE, panelData = FALSE)
database <- data.frame(id=1:100, x1=stats::runif(100), x2=stats::runif(100))
apollo_inputs <- apollo_validateInputs()
apollo_attach(apollo_beta, apollo_inputs)
V = b1*x1 + b2*x2
apollo_detach(apollo_beta, apollo_inputs)
# }
