READ ME FILE The collection of R and JAGS scripts downloadable from this webpage allow you to run the examples presented in the book. By default, the codes assume the following directories structure: Utils.R ch2 MCMC.R modelNormal.R modelNormal.txt phbirths.dta ch3 HEexample.R model.txt modelEVPPI_rho.txt modelEVPPI_gamma.txt ch4 modelNormal.R modelNormalBlocking.txt modelNormal2.txt ch5 acupuncture.R dataRCTacupuncture.csv actptRCT.txt actptRCT_gamma.txt actptRCT_logN.txt EvSynth.R EvSynth.txt MarkovModel.R MarkovModel.txt In other words, there is a root directory in which the utility file Utils.R and the 4 directories (one for each chapter) including the scripts for the examples are saved. Of course, you may change the set up and save all files in a single folder, or rename the folders, or whatever. However, in that case, some commands may not work (R will typically complain about not finding files or links).
