Examples

The ADMB examples have moved here: https://github.com/admb-project/examples

Good examples are an important part of the ADMB documentation. The examples are categorised and include the ADMB files needed to run the model. Users are encouraged to contribute their own examples. Warning: currently the hierarchy of examples is under reorganization and hence linking to examples may be risky. (Better to link directly to underlying external material in case that is provided).

How to submit your own example

1. Upload the example to your own webpage
2. There are no style requirements (but .tpl .dat files are encouraged)
3. Send an email (Subject  “Example submission”) to users@admb-project.org containing:
   1. Link (URL) to the example
   2. Title of the example
   3. Abstract

The abstract will be uploaded to the ADMB project website. The rest will remain on your webpage. In that way you will be able to make changes later on. If you do not have your own webpage you can use GitHub (See bottom of page).
Please suggest one of the categories to the left, or feel free to suggest new categories if you do not find the existing ones suitable.

Uploading content to GitHub

https://github.com/ is a good (free for our purpose) option for uploading your ADMB examples to the web. A link from the ADMB webpage will then direct users to your github stuff. This allows you to easily to modify your example without needing write access to the ADMB web page.

Note Files like pdf’s should be put in the download section and only text files like tpl and dat as repository files. The reason is that if you include a non-text file in repository any changes cause the file to be re-copied entirely if it is changed. In the download section, you delete it and upload again.
