Some things to install

During one of the breaks before the afternoon session, please run the following code in R to install a few things we'll use later:

# install 'devtools' and then 'bayesplot'
if (!require("devtools")) install.packages("devtools")
library("devtools")
install_github("jgabry/bayesplot")

# also install 'shinystan'
install.packages("shinystan")

RStudio preview version

RStudio has syntax highlighting for Stan programs, but if you want to get Stan syntax highlighting for the latest version of Stan, you can install the preview version of RStudio from here:
