apollo_checkArguments function

Checks definitions of Apollo functions

Checks that the user-defined functions used by Apollo are correctly defined by the user.

apollo_checkArguments(
  apollo_probabilities = NA,
  apollo_randCoeff = NA,
  apollo_lcPars = NA
)

Arguments

• apollo_probabilities: Function. Likelihood function as defined by the user.

• apollo_randCoeff: Function. Used with mixing models. Constructs the random parameters of a mixing model. Receives two arguments:

  • ‘apollo_beta’ : Named numeric vector. Names and values of model parameters.
  • ‘apollo_inputs’ : The output of this function (apollo_validateInputs).

• apollo_lcPars: Function. Used with latent class models. Constructs a list of parameters for each latent class. Receives two arguments:

  • ‘apollo_beta’ : Named numeric vector. Names and values of model parameters.
  • ‘apollo_inputs’ : The output of this function (apollo_validateInputs).

Returns

Returns (invisibly) TRUE if definitions are correct, and FALSE otherwise.

Details

It only checks that the functions have the correct definition of inputs. It does not run the functions.
