Failing to implement Bayesian Chi2 goodness of fit test

The central idea is that the proposed $R^B$ statistic's posterior approaches a $\chi^2_{K-1}$ distribution, where $K$ is the number of discrete values a variable can take. … It is defined as $$R^B(\tilde\theta) = \sum_{k=1}^K \left[{m_k - n p_k(\tilde\theta) \over \sqrt{np_k(\tilde\theta)}}\right]^2$$ where $\tilde\theta$ is a single posterior draw from the parameter vector …
