HDIofMCMC: Compute Highest-Density Interval

Description

Computes the highest density interval from a sample of representative values, estimated as shortest credible interval. Downloaded from John Kruschke's website http://www.indiana.edu/~kruschke/DoingBayesianDataAnalysis/

Usage

HDIofMCMC(sampleVec, credMass = 0.95)

Arguments

sampleVec
A vector of representative values from a probability distribution (e.g., MCMC samples).
credMass
A scalar between 0 and 1, indicating the mass within the credible interval that is to be estimated.

Value

A vector containing the limits of the HDI
