Re: MCMC Sampling and Boundary Penalty
Misspoke earlier though. For the Beta coefficients, a=b>>1 gives a centered Normalish distribution around 0.5. If you want something flattish, but avoiding extremes, you'd want 1<a=b<2.

Anyway ... I can replicate this with a simpler example, so no need. Will explore a better boundary reflection approach.

Re: MCMC Sampling and Boundary Penalty
I guess the likelihood was also uniform over this experiment? Reflecting off the boundaries is tricky in multidimensions, but we could probably improve on this behavior. In the short run I don't have a good solution though. A couple possibilities would be to use the logistic transform on the paramet...

Re: ack of simulation results
I think what you're seeing is correct.
The stock Cena is constant because the flow Zmiana ceny is 0. That happens because Cena = Cena rynkowa.
I find the table tool most useful for diagnosing problems like this.

Re: Adding Comments to Calibration VOC
I think the rules are much like those for .cin files,
https://www.vensim.com/documentation/ci ... q=Comments
If you look at a .out file (which can be reused as a voc), you'll see comments like:
:COMSYS After 22610 simulations
Just the :C should be sufficient.
Spaces should be OK.

Re: Automated multiple simulations in PLE+?
A quick way to do this would be to vary the noise seed in Synthesim, changing the run name each time. You can do this one of the following ways: A. Create a variable called NOISE SEED, with value 1 (or any other integer). Set the range to something like 1 ... 1000 and the interval to 1. In your rand...

Re: Sensitivity2All
You should be able to replicate the error manually. Just do a run with the first reported problem, manually changing additional cooling tariff kwh as shown.
When you choose "simulate 1 param +/- 10%" it creates ordinary runs that will appear in the dataset control, on plots, etc.

Re: Sensitivity2All
The thread affinity warnings are benign. It just means the operating system declined to assign requested threads. Presumably this is Windows, where thread management is not as good as Linux. It won't affect results. The crash might be related to the floating point errors in the model. Did you submit...

Re: Death by Subscript
SUM is definitely the summation operator Sigma. The exclamation point is not useless; it is necessary in cases where you'd like to sum over a subset of the dimensions belonging to the right side. I would write the equation in your image with something like the following: n : n1, n2 s : <something> a...

Looking at the model may not be required, but I'm not sure an answer can be given from the material here. What you're showing seems syntactically valid, so the problem may be somewhere else. What are the definitions of h and pressure number? What is on the left side of the sum expression? Is h the e...

Probably not, but you could modify your flow equations to do the same thing. We'd have to have a concrete example to comment on.

Re: How to calculate the difference in value for a variable in vensim over time?
You can use DELAY FIXED for this: Previous GDP = DELAY FIXED( Current GDP, one year, Current GDP ) ~ $/year one year == 1 ~ year In continuous time, you can use the SMOOTH function, i.e. Previous GDP = SMOOTH( Current GDP, one year ) ~ $/year You can also use the TREND function to compute a fraction...

Re: Continuos or discrete variables?
On the other hand, if you're interested in stochastic extinction of a disease in a small population, integer values may matter.
It's impossible to answer these questions in general; some specifics of the question to be answered must be known.

For example, people are certainly available in integer quantities. But what about the work-equivalent of ...

You can also use SAMPLE IF TRUE for this (though I think it's not available in all versions).
