Re: [Gretl-devel] Variable names in summary statistics (and similar)
Sry again, I got it from the homepage (sourceforge) by selecting the "last
snapshot" and now it works (I used the updating prior...).
Here is the working example for the copy:
___
clear
nulldata 100
setobs 1 1 --cross-section
series somethingelse = uniform()
series Utility_min = normal()
series Utility_max = normal()+1
series Utility_avg = (Utility_min + Utility_max)/2
list alls = dataset
loop foreach i alls
string new = strsub(varname($i), "Utility", "U")
catch rename $i @new
endloop
___
Many thanks to all of you!

A couple of days ago this was changed:
"Now varname() accepts either an ID number or a series itself."
Are you using the latest cvs/git version?

When will the recent updated that fixes this be pushed? I am using
windows...
