# Gelman and Hill (2006)
Examples and data for the classic textbook [Gelman and Hill (2006)][book-link].
## Notebooks
A notebook file contains the code, output and formatted comments for an R
script. As I work through the examples, I save notebooks.
- Chapter 7

- [07-02 Summarizing Linear Regression Using Simulation](examples/Ch07/07-02_SummarizingLinearRegressionUsingSimulation.md)
- [07-03 Simulation for Nonlinear Predictions](examples/Ch07/07-03_SimulationForNonLinearPredictions.md)
## BUGS vs. Stan
I created this repository so that I could work through the book's examples
as an RStudio project. Things have become slightly more complicated:
The BUGS code in the book is effectively unsupported (in favor of Stan).
I originally downloaded the materials from [Gelman's page][arm-page] and
stored them in this repository. These files used BUGS for model fitting,
so they represent the canonical computing materials for the first
edition of the book (2006).
Gelman's [instructions page for BUGS][bugsR] is now titled "Use Stan
instead", so I'll be using [Stan](http://mc-stan.org/)/RStan instead.
Fortunately, Stan materials for the book were
[available][examples-commit], and I've replaced the BUGS examples with
Stan examples. These Stan examples are from circa 2015.
I'm taking the liberty to modify examples and rename files as I work
through them. I've tagged the commits with unmodified versions of the
[original BUGS examples][pure-bugs] and [original Stan
examples][pure-stan] so that those are readily available.
