Weird naming in Rhat parameters

Issue #26 resolved
Martin Modrák created an issue

The Rhat function allows users to set a “Normalize” property which means the samples are rank-transformed before computing the diagnostic. I am not sure this is a good choice - I’ve usually understood “Normalize” to mean “subtract mean and divide by standard deviation”. If “Normalize” is usually used as a synonym for “rank transform” in the community MUQ target, then this is OK. But if not, I think calling the property “RankTransform” would be more direct and understandable.

    Thanks for pointing this out @Martin Modrák . I’ve changed the option to Transform instead of Normalize. It’s updated in commit 0887531 and will be merged into master soon.
