lag operator

[scboy]

Hi everyone,

i am new to eviews and trying to estimate this equation, for the lag inflation (t-1). Can I key in d(inflation(-1)) on eviews? is the d(inflation(-1)) equal to the lag inflation (t-1)
and since the literature doesn't say how many lags we use does it means i can make how many lags i want?

Thanks guys

lagged inflation is just inflation(-1), no d().
