I have a simple example notebook based on an example given in Phil Gregory's "Bayesian Logical Data Analysis for the Physical Sciences". If you wish, I can send it to you. BTW, the book subtitle is "A Comparitive Approach with Mathematica Support". If you are looking for such a text with Mathematica throughout, this is not it. The Mathematica in the text is minimal (or less). Kevin Ramiro wrote: > Hello, > > I use Mathematica a lot and now I would like to do MCMC to work on > some of my problems.
