Hi all,
A student of mine has come across what seems to be a bug in
the “edit values” option from the “data” menu. The
problem is to set the initial value of a saved residual vector (from an AR(1)
model) equal to 0. It seems like we should be able to set that directly by
using “edit values”, but the “apply” button is disabled
and the change isn’t saved once the “spreadsheet” window is
closed. Adding “u1 = misszero(uhat1)” works fine, as does modifying
it directly from the console via “uhat1[1] = 0”. I’m using
the latest snapshot (downloaded this morning).
TIA,
PS
