Dear Eviewers,
I use Eviews 11 build Sept 2019
@recode does not work properly in assignments, see code below which breaks due to log of non-negative number
(Same @recode command as in context of "show" works, however)

Code: Select all


wfcreate a 2000 2010
series x=nrnd
show @recode(x<=0,NA,log(x)) 'this works
series y=@recode(x<=0,NA,log(x)) 'this doesn't, but it should work as well as the line above

I have found a work-around

Code: Select all


wfcreate a 2000 2010
series x=nrnd
' show @recode(x<=0,NA,log(x)) 'this works
series y=0 'pre-define y
series y=@recode(x<=0,y,log(x)) 'this works as well!!

Best, mamo

Not really a bug - EViews is supposed to error/warn when you create a series that generates NAs. The series is still created.
