Hi , Are there any multivariate GARCH package (e.g., BEKK) in R? I do see a few "projects" constructing multivariate GARCH package, but wonder if there is anyone that is ready for use. Thanks, Miao [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I have a program, when I write if(num!=NA) it yields an error message. However, if I write if(is.na(num)==FALSE) it works. Why doesn't the first statement work? Thanks, Miao [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I want to fit a mean and variance model jointly. For example I might want to fit an AR(2)-GARCH(1,1) model i.e. r_t = constant_term1 + b*r_t-1 + c*r_t-2 + a_t where a_t = sigma_t*epsilon_t where sigma^2_t = constant_term2 + p*sigma^2_t-1 + q*a^2_t-1 i.e. R estimates a constant_term1, b, c, constant_term2, p, q TIA Aditya

Dear Daniel and Jorge, Thank you very much and it does help. If I have a string "ABCD", how can I access the second element of the string "B"?

Hi jpm miao, You can get CSV files that can be imported into Excel like this: library(prettyR) sink("excel_table1.csv") delim.table(table(df[,c("y","z")])) sink() sink("excel_table2.csv") delim.table(as.data.frame(table(df[,c("y","z")])),label="") sink() sink("excel_table3.csv")

Hello, Let us convert a vector to a time series object starting in 1978Q1: FRW<-ts(FRW0, frequency=4, start=c(1978,1)) FRW[3:6] represents the data from 1978Q3 to 1979Q2. Could we access the data by the time (1978Q3 to 1979Q2) instead of FRW[3:6]? Thanks, miao [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, How could we print the frequency table (produced by "table") to an Excel file? Is there an easy way to do so?

Hello, I have a question on how to tabulate the time series data. I use RStudio, but if can be done in any other R editor, it should work in RStudio as well. > a1<-11:22 > a1ts<-ts(a1, frequency=4, start=c(1978,1)) > a1ts Qtr1 Qtr2 Qtr3 Qtr4 1978 11 12 13 14 1979 15 16 17 18 1980 19 20 21 22 If I click the variable "a1ts" on the

Hello, I am using RStudio and have trouble finding out the problematic line in the presence of a bug. Could I view the line NUMBER which contains a bug? Is there any R editor able to do it? Thanks, Miao [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

HI, I have a dataframe with two variable A, B. I transform the two variable and name them as C, D and save it in a dataframe dfcd. However, I wonder why can't I call them by dfcd$C and dfcd$D? Thanks, Miao > A=c(1,2,3) > B=c(4,6,7) > dfab<-data.frame(A,B) > C=dfab["A"]*2 > D=dfab["B"]*3 > dfcd<-data.frame(C,D) > dfcd A B 1 2 12 2 4 18

Hello, I work with time series data. From time to time I run programs to produce results that are in time series form (e.g., quarterly or monthly data). After a few days I might need to access part of the results and to run another program. Is there any function or package (like dataframe or zoo?) that might help so that I don't need to copy the results manually to a csv or xls file?

Hello, I have problem running the histogram function "hist". The area under the histogram is much lower than 1. Could anyone tell me what the problem is? Thanks, (The total number of observation is 992 (close to 1000), so the probability that 0<Y1<35 is approximately 0.277) miao rm(list=ls()) par(mfrow=c(1, 1)) Y <- cbind(matrix(35*0.5,1,277), matrix(35*1.5, 1, 146),

Hi, I would like to read several datasets and would like to create a set (list? sequence?) of many empty dataframes. How could this be done? How could I declare a set (list? sequence?) of many empty matrices? Thanks, Miao [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I let xzoo be an empty object: > xzoo<-{} and I have an existing zoo object x1zoo_f. I would like to combine the two to make a new zoo object, and continue doing so in a loop, which is not shown here. However, when I type > xzoo<-cbind(xzoo, x1zoo_f) An error message emerges Error in zoo(structure(x, dim = dim(x)), index(x), ...) : “x” : attempt to define

Hi, I'd like to print a string vertically. For example, I would like to print "abcd" as "a\nb\nc\nd" Is there a function in R such that Input: "abcd" Output: "a\nb\nc\nd"? Thanks, Miao [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Taking the Grunfeld data, which is built-in in R, for example, (1)How can I construct a dataset (or dataframe) that consists of the data of all firms in 1951? (2)How can I calculate the average capital in each form over the period 1951-1954? What I can imagine is to categorize the data by firm, and then select the data between 1951 and 1954 for each firm, but how can I do it? Thanks, Miao
