Hi,

does the mh_drop option refer to discarding the initial (burn-in) draws, or does it simply define the number of draws that are used when reporting the posterior distribution (e.g. mh_drop=0.25 for one out of four draws)?

Thanks a lot

Alessandro

Hi Alessandro,

Your first guess is the good one. I found the answer with google
