The attached code in R uses Hierarchical Bayesian statistics to generate an excel file for an adaptative questionnaire. See http://www.insead.edu/facultyresearch/research/doc.cfm?did=44772 for more information on hte algorithm.

The code is not working right know as there are some bugs. The task will be to:
1) fix the bugs
2) add a constraint on the variable pi which should be positive and with initial value 0.9
3) clean and document the code
4) generate the table

Erreur dans if (thevaluecand < thevalue) { :
valeur manquante là où TRUE / FALSE est requis. Your error is because thevaluecand is NA. So it would be like that if (!is.na(thevaluecand))) { if (thevaluecand < thevalue) {...}.
