Hi, I am currently looking for a program or programmng language easy to learn, easier to operate on.I heva heard about "R", However I understand that "R" is designed especially for statisticians. As an economist, working on applied econometrics, I am not sure if it can meet my needs. Will I be able to reach precise time series or panal data regression results with

Dear helpeRs, a colleague of mine would like to give R a try. He uses econometric models which typically involve a large number of variables, esp. time series. Having no experience with handling very large data sets myself I turn to you. 1. Could you please describe your experiences to cope with these situations? 2. What kind of difficulties will he have to face? Are there special

Hi all, Please recommend good books for the following three categories. (I am aim at finance, macroeconomics, trading and business applications). (1) statistical (financial) data analysis; (2) time series; (3) econometrics. More specifically, I am looking for the following two types of books: (1) Books that provide big pictures and intuitions and books that connect dots... For example, there

Dear Group, I am an economics student starting with PhD work in London. As preparation I would like to get to know R a little bit better. For Stata there are tons of books, however, can you recommend a book for R? I have some substantiated econometrics knowledge, so it should be more a how-to book.

Hi, I did not find any web page about using R in economics and econometrics so far. However, this does not mean that there is none (searching with google for "R" and "economics" gives many pages about economics and a name like Firstname R. Lastname on it ;-)). Does anybody in the list does know such a web page? If not, I will be happy if you, Ajay, could build and

Hi, Is there any package or functions in R that can perform tests and estimation for a spatial econometric model in a simultaneous system? Thank you!!! Xia Feng

Hello, I have just started using R, maybe more like learning it. I am interested in using it for Time Series Analysis and I wanted to know if anyone was familiar with packages other than TS that might be appropriate. Allan

Dear developeRs, in the last month I mentioned in several discussions on R-help that Kurt and I were working on tools for "CRAN Task Views" which should help to structure the fast-growing list of packages on CRAN. Now the first version of a package called ctv (for CRAN Task Views) is available from CRAN and also two frist drafts for such views can be seen at

Dear R users, I am putting together reading and resources lists for spatial statistics and spatial econometrics and am looking for some pointers from more experienced practitioners. In particular, I find two "camps" in spatial modelling, and am wondering which approach is better suitied to which situation. The first camp is along the lines of Venables and Ripley's Chapter 14

I would like to run the Federal Reserves econometric model on open source software - they sent me the specifications for the model and what is neccessary to run the model on TROLL (which is a commercially available econometric software) I am looking into the feasability of doing this and whether or not R is the right tool - I would like to discuss the idea with someone who is familiar with this

Does anyone know of a package that includes the Modified Sims test [Gewerke, 1983, Sims, 1972]? This test is used in econometrics and is a kind of alternative to the Granger test [Granger, 1969], which is in the package lmtest. Thanks in advance, chris Refernces: Gewerke, J., R. Meese, and W.
