Bayesian computation with r introduces bayesian modeling by the use of computation using the r language the early chapters present the basic tenets of bayesian thinking by use of familiar one and two parameter inferential problems bayesian computational methods such as laplaces method rejection sampling and the sir algorithm are illustrated in the context of a random effects model the construction and implementation of markov chain monte carlo mcmc methods is introduced these .
