11.6.2.3. Information on the process

The next method discussed here is fairly simple: a MCMC simulation may take a long time to complete, particularly when running code, regardless of the chosen architecture. This method changes the number of iterations between two output displays. The prototype is simply:

void setNbDump(int nbDump);

The method takes a single integer argument that specifies the interval (modulo) at which the algorithm displays its progress. With the default value of 1000, the output will look like this:

1000 events done
2000 events done
3000 events done
...
