Hi,
I have been using gretl in my teaching, and it has worked well. The
students seem to like the software.
However, I have a few suggestions for improvements of gretl, making
it possible for me to use it in other courses:
1. A possibility to generate random binomial variables, for example
by adding a menu entry Add > Random variable > Binomial
2. For frequency plots of continual data (i.e., histograms), amke it
possible for the user to
a). Choose bin width
b). Choose number of bins
3. For discrete data, make it possible to create pie charts
These are the most important improvements. What are the chances of
these suggestions being implemented soon?
Some other suggestions, not necessary for using in the courses I am
thinking about, but which would be quite useful and nice to have in
gretl (in order of importance):
1. Support for Multinomial logistic regression
2. Forward/backward stepwise selection for regressions
3. Direct import of R format, SPSS format and
OpenOffice.org Calc format files
4. Quantile regression
5. Ordinal logistic regression
Are there any chances of these suggestions being implemented?
Best regards,
Andreas
