Code for de Finetti's theorem doesn't work
Closed this issue · 5 comments
As far as I can tell, this gives an error:
var latent = sample(latentPrior)
var thunk = function() {return observe(latent)}
var sequence = repeat(2,thunk)
In particular, the error I get is "sample() expected a distribution". I'm confused by this, because I was under the impression that Gaussian() was a distribution!
Interestingly, what is highlighted is the observe function, not sample. Not sure what that means.
That example isn't meant to be runnable -- latentPrior is actually undefined, so this code should give you an error.
For me, sample is highlighted, not observe. There might be some issue with the error handling code or the editor -- what browser are you using?
What version?

Hmm, me too, but I can't reproduce the highlighting behavior you're getting.
