How to make model.append parse @ data members?
Posted: Wed Apr 16, 2014 10:47 am
What I'm trying to do is make a model that consists of the lower 95% confidence interval for a set of equations. Rather than type everything in by hand, I'm trying to make use of the @coefs and @stderrs data members of the equation object. Here's what I would expect to work:
But that simply copies the string "VAR1 = eq@coefs(1)-1.96*eq@stderrs(1) + (eq@coefs(2)-1.96*eq@stderrs(2))*VAR2 + (eq@coefs(3)-1.96*eq@stderrs(3))*VAR3" into the equation object, and it gives the error, "EQ@COEFS is an illegal or reserved name..."
How do I make EViews not simply copy, but evaluate/parse the @coefs and @stderrs data members? I tried using replacement variables, but couldn't make it work.
Any help would be appreciated (or if there's an easier way of going about this)
Code: Select all
EQUATION eq.ls VAR1 c VAR2 VAR3
MODEL sample
sample.append VAR1 = eq@coefs(1)-1.96*eq@stderrs(1) + (eq@coefs(2)-1.96*eq@stderrs(2))*VAR2 + (eq@coefs(3)-1.96*eq@stderrs(3))*VAR3
