consistent naming of covariance/correlation matrices #716

Closed bob-carpenter closed 1 month ago

bob-carpenter commented 6 months ago

Summary:

Make the notation consistent for covariance and correlation matrices.

Description:

From @andrewgelman:

In section 5.5 of the reference manual, you label the cov matrix as Omega and the cor matrix as Sigma. For reasons of consistency in notation with section 1.13 of the user's guide, I think you want to switch that to Sigma for the cov matrix and Omega for the cor matrix.
