bugs2jags: Convert WinBUGS data file to JAGS data file

Description

bugs2jags converts a WinBUGS data in the format called "S-Plus" (i.e. the format created by the dput function) and writes it in dump format used by JAGS. NB WinBUGS stores its arrays in row order. This is different from R and JAGS which both store arrays in column order. This difference is taken into account by bugs2jags which will automatically reorder the data in arrays, without changing the dimension.

Usage

bugs2jags(infile, outfile)

Arguments

infile
name of the input file
outfile
name of the output file
