depend_var_table#
View page sourceWhich Variables The Model Depends On#
Purpose#
This table is created by the depend_command and is not used by any commands. It is only meant as a diagnostic to see if the model has more variables than necessary; e.g., random effects with not associated data.
depend_var_id#
This column has type integer
and is the primary key for this table.
Its initial value is zero, and it increments by one for each row.
The depend_var_id column is also a foreign key for the
var_table ; i.e.,
depend_var_id = var_id
In addition, the size of both tables is the same.
data_depend#
This column type integer
and is either zero or one.
If it is one (zero), the model for the data does (does not) depend on the
model_variable corresponding to this
var_id .
prior_depend#
This column type integer
and is either zero or one.
If it is one (zero), the model for the prior does (does not) depend on the
model_variable corresponding to this
var_id .
Example#
See the depend_command.py example and test.
