+#' This function implements a sequential Bayesian estimation method of R0 due to

+#' implementation notes.

-#'The method sets a uniform prior distribution on R0 with support (possible values) set from zero to \code{kappa}.  Our approach discretizes the distribution of R0 on a fine grid.   The distribution of R0 is then updated sequentially, with one update for each new case count observation.  The final estimate of R0 is \code{Rhat}, the mean of the (last) posterior distribution.
-#' The prior distribution is the initial belief of the distribution of R0; which in this implementation is the uninformative uniform distribution with values between zero and kappa.  Users can change the value of kappa only (ie. the prior distribution cannot be changed from the uniform).  As more case counts are observed, the influence of the prior distribution should lessen on the final estimate \code{Rhat}.

-#' This method is based on an approximation of the SIR model, which is most valid at the beginning of an epidemic.  The method assumes that the mean of the serial distribution (sometimes called the serial interval) is known.  The final estimate can be quite sensitive to this value, so sensitivity testing is recommended. Users should be careful about units of time (e.g. are counts observed daily or weekly?) when implementing.

-#' Our code has been modified to provide an estimate even if case counts equal to zero are present in some time intervals.  This is done by grouping the counts over such periods of time.  Without grouping, and in the presence of zero counts, no estimate can be provided.

-#' @return secB returns a list containing the following components:  \code{Rhat} is the estimate of R0 (the posterior mean), \code{posterior} is the posterior distribution of R0 from which alternate estimates can be obtained (see examples), \code{group} is an indicator variable (if \code{group=TRUE}, zero values of NT were input and grouping was done to obtain \code{Rhat}), and \code{inputs} is a list of the original input variables \code{NT, gamma, kappa}.  The variable \code{posterior} is returned as a list made up of \code{supp} the support of the distribution and \code{pmf} the probability mass function.
