Dynare forums

Hello,

I am solving macro mdoel and got the following error message.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Are there problems in some arguments of functions, or in my model itself?

Dear Koji,

which version of Scilab are you using?

Dear Michel,

I am using Scilab-4.0.

We noticed that you are using expression like

C=i(+1)...

in the INITVAL block. It isn't permitted to use lead or lagged value of a variable in the INITVAL block.

Did you succeed in running Dynare under Scilab v. 4 with a simpler model?

Best

Michel

Thank you for your suggestion (and sorry for my late response).
I dropped (+1) from initval block.
And I also found some mistakes in my model. Now it works.
