Description: User-facing R functions are provided to parse, compile, test, 
    estimate, and analyze Stan models by accessing the header-only Stan library 
    provided by the 'StanHeaders' package. The Stan project develops a
    probabilistic programming language that implements full Bayesian statistical 
    inference via Markov Chain Monte Carlo, rough Bayesian inference via 'variational'
    approximation, and (optionally penalized) maximum likelihood estimation via 
    optimization. In all three cases, automatic differentiation is used to quickly 
    and accurately evaluate gradients without burdening the user with the need 
    to derive the partial derivatives.
