problems in forecast -command with two variables
Posted: Thu Mar 27, 2008 2:01 pm
Dear All,
The attached file example1a.mod shows how forecast command operates, when there is one varexo_det variable. Note, however, that there have to be "periods 0:1;" in the shocks spesification. Without "0:" part, the code results error message.
When I add the second varexo_det variable (see attached file example1b.mod), I obtain the following error
It seems that the problem lies on the last two matrices in simultxdet at 57. One of them is 1 by 2 and other one 2 by 1.
I have tried this on a latest dynare 3 snapshot too.
Is there any simple workaround?
Best regards,
Antti
