[julia-users] Integers as Parameters in Parametric Types

2014-11-09 Thread Theodore Papamarkou
According to Julia's doc, either types or integers can be used as parameters in parametric types. In the case of integers used as parameters, the integers are considered as types. Nevertheless, I have found the usage of integer parameters to be somewhat more ambiguous. Let me elaborate. Case 1:

[julia-users] ANN: MCMC.jl has moved to Lora.jl

2014-12-13 Thread Theodore Papamarkou
Dear all, This is a quick update to let you know that JuliaStats/MCMC.jl has moved to JuliaStats/Lora.jl. The development of Lora will continue as normal. The main reason behind this change is to reserve JuliaStats/MCMC.jl as a placeholder-roadmap for the future merging of 3-4 independent MCMC

[julia-users] Cryptic error message related to some "data" function, which does not appear in my own code...

2016-01-02 Thread Theodore Papamarkou
I receive an error in Julia 0.5, which does not happen in 0.4.2. Due to the complexity of the underlying code it is hard to isolate the problem, and even more intriguingly, the error message I receive comes out of the blue complaining about a method error for a "data" function, which I haven't

Ah, I think this issue is probably a bug in ForwardDiff, which I import in Lora. I will open an issue in ForwardDiff. On Saturday, 2 January 2016 22:58:24 UTC, Theodore Papamarkou wrote: > > I work on Lora (from master which hasn't been pushed to METADATA), running > line

Thanks Eric, I failed to mention that I am one of the main developers of Lora ( so I basically wrote this README note :) ). I was just trying to figure out why Lora fails with Julia 0.5, but I can now see that it is almost certainly due to a recent change in ForwardDiff, since the latter packag

It was my fault, as I was unclear :) Exactly, I am trying to fix the Lora build errors when using Julia's dev version. I got terrified for a moment that there may be a fundamental bug in Julia's code base I was dealing with, that's why I turned to the user group, but it seems more likely the er
