Hi,

I am a new eviews user.
I used to work with SAS...

I just have 23 data in my base.
I tested those data, I know they're distributed from Normale.
Mean = 299,15
std dev : 23,95

I want to generate new data from a Normale(299.15 ; 23,95) to make a new regression and compare to my first results with 23 data.
So, my question is :
how to generate those new data ?

thanks a lot for helping

Code: Select all

series x = 299.15 + 23.95*nrnd
(note in your post you aren't clear whether 23.95 is the stdev or the variance).
