Hi,
I was trying some estimation on different models for which I have defined different apollo_draws objects.
Using "apollo_validateInputs" and providing the apollo_draws object give the error:
Error in length(apollo_draws) && is.na(apollo_draws) :
'length = 8' in coercion to 'logical(1)'
I think it came from apollo_validateInput line 131 (in the github repository):
if(length(apollo_draws) && is.na(apollo_draws)) apollo_draws <- tryCatch( get("apollo_draws", envir=globalenv()), error=function(e) NA )
Where I believe a "==1" is missing after "length(apollo_draws)".
I've worked around this by using a modified function.
Not providing any apollo_draws argument and having the object named apollo_draws in the environment would have also worked.
I don't seem to have seen this error reported by another user and wanted to let you know before a next update.
Thank you for your work.
Sorry for my frenchized English.

- Make sure that R is using the latest official release of Apollo.
- Users can check which version they are running by entering packageVersion("apollo").
- Then check what is the latest full release (not development version) at http://www.ApolloChoiceModelling.com/code.html.
- To update to the latest official version, just enter install.packages("apollo"). To update to a development version, download the appropriate binary file from http://www.ApolloChoiceModelling.com/code.html, and install the package from file
- If the above steps do not resolve the issue, then users should follow these steps when posting a question:
- provide full details on the issue, including the entire code and output, including any error messages
