Econometric and Statistical Computing Using Ox
Abstract
This paper reviews the matrix programminglanguage Ox from the viewpoint of an econometrician/statistician.We focus on scientific programming using Ox and discussexamples of possible interest to econometricians and statisticians, such as random number generation, maximum likelihood estimation, andMonte Carlo simulation. Ox is a remarkable matrix programming language which is well suited to research and teaching in econometrics and statistics. Copyright Kluwer Academic Publishers 2003Download Info
