+Description:
+ This package allows users to easily specify and fit
+ Bayesian models via Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). Models
+ may be specified using standard Bayesian model
+ "twiddle" notation. Functions are provided to convert these
+ models into density functions and random generators, and to
+ use these estimate the posterior density using a variety of
+ MCMC algorithms, including the general Metropolis-Hastings and
+ Metropolis algorithms.
