Chapter 5 import error when running pymc model

[EAly]

I get the following error when I try to run any pymc model from chapter 5, e.g. Code 5.3, Code 5.6, Code 5.10:

ImportError                               Traceback (most recent call last)

     84 except ImportError:

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

I exported the details of the environment I'm using to the attached txt files (I'm sorry if this is not the optimal way to share environments, but this is the best of my knowledge) stats_reth2_ea_env.txt

Have you tried using this environment with the package versions listed here? https://github.com/pymc-devs/pymc-resources/blob/main/Rethinking_2/environment.yml

[EAly]

The environment I'm using is pretty much the same, except that I'm using pymc v4

[canyon289]

That explains it. PyMC V4 has multiple breaking changes and isnt compatible with the notebooks in that directory. Id suggest using that version exactly, or if youd like upgrading the rethinking notebooks to v4 in prs.

[EAly]

Just to be sure, are you referring to this pull request: #198?

[canyon289]

I dont think so because the environment doesnt change in that PR

Actually the use of aesara instead of theano, as per the notebook, solved the problem and the models are working fine so far (up to code snippet 5.10). I'm not sure though if others changes need to be done to the other packages in the environment.

[canyon289]

Looked at the PR, yes though it needs some work. Would you be willing to update env file and the rest of the notebooks as well? That would be a great help!

I read in the Rethinking README that chapters 14, 15 and 16 are left to be migrated. Is someone working on that? I didn't find any related issue.

[yahrMason]

@symeneses chapter 14 updates are on main, you can find the 15 and 16 updates on this PR
