Description
Summary:
It would be good to add to CmdStan user guide a section about how to set different compiler options. Currently the user guide has only the example
CXXFLAGS = -O2
Which is bad, as it is not with += and doesn't even remove -O3 as optimization level should be set with O=2 as dicussed in this thread
Current Version:
v2.29.0
