Re: [Gretl-devel] minor issues
whoops sorry,
I realize now that 'nulldata' erases T and thus cannot be referenced anymore.
However, I didn't get the meaningful error message 'symbol is not defined' but
something else, which was misleading, hence the initial confusion. Maybe that still
qualifies as a minor bug ;-)
thanks,
sven

Oh well, yet another:
The following script gives an error:
# meta parameters (stacked time series)
N = 5000
T = 5
size = N*T
nulldata size
setobs T 1:1 --stacked-time-series
Obviously, setobs doesn't accept a variable for the periodicity. It could
be just a missing feature, but in the realm of gretl's versatile scripting
language I'm actually inclined to call it a bug.
cheers,
sven
