I wonder if there is a possibility, somehow, in gretl to choose
which alternative should count as the base category when running
a multinomial logit model. To me it seems as if gretl
automatically always chooses the FIRST alternative.
Gretl chooses the lowest-valued alternative. If you want to put a
different category in this place, give it the lowest value.
For example, if y contains values 1, 2, etc., and you want value 3
to be the base:
series new_y = (y==3)? 0 : y
