Irregular sampling allowed? #7

I have not gone through the code much, so this may already be a feature...

Do your models allow for irregular sampling between time points?

cbahlai commented 5 years ago

Right now, no- I don't think that would work, but that's something to think about- there's no reason we couldn't use a more continuous/less time stepped based model, but right now that's just a limitation of fitting the Ricker. Although...I'm wondering- in theory, a missed step shouldn't necessarily be impossible to surmount- but I haven't specifically tested it. I wonder of the model would be more (or less?) likely to assign a break at that point?
