Slides from "How Stan computes the posterior distribution"

I spoke at the Bayesian Data Analysis meetup in NYC last month. It was an interactive session where we worked through how Stan computes lp__, the evaluation of the log probability used by the MCMC sampler to generate proposals.

Here are links to slides and materials:
