apollo (version 0.2.2)

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 that contains them. Also applies scaling if in use.

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. The use of apollo_attach is mandatory in models using scaling.
