You obviously know little about R or you would not have asked that question. So heeding Jim's advice is clearly your first step. A second would be to read the "Writing R extensions" manual to learn about R packages. A third would be to check out the CRAN task views to get a sense of what's

Hi Ben, Before you begin playing with BUGS/JAGS, there are several native R packages that deal with a wide variety of Bayesian models that worth considering. Among many others, I find MCMCpack, DPpackage, and MCMCglmm very useful (and convenient). Best, Shige On Tue, Apr 13, 2010 at 7:49 PM,

Hi Rthoughts, Yes, I see now that they truly are (just) Rthoughts;) but take courage, for we are getting closer (to the start). You still need to read the basic documentation, and you will get used to the command line. What I think you need is a package called Rcmdr. So, start R using your
