Re: [Gretl-users] If only they had used gretl...

This is very sad and mistakes happen whatever software you use, but it looks like with Excel it so easy to do it wrong. And I still don't get why people continue to do serious data analysis in spreadsheet. Digging into Herdon, Ash Pollen paper <http://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.peri.umass.edu/fileadmin/pdf/worki... looks like the use R for their analysis (check page 14, footnote) and the made it available to everyone (here<http://www.peri.umass.edu/236/hash/31e2ff374b6377b2ddec04deaa6388... ) Hope that more researchers in social science will drop spreadsheet for serious alternative such as Gretl and R. May be is the right moment to start to think to a gretl package for reproductible research such as Sweave, Knitr or Org-babel (I succeed to make org-babel works with gretl but it's still lack a lot of feature) 2013/4/19 Riccardo (Jack) Lucchetti <r.lucchetti(a)univpm.it&gt; -- Ahmadou H.
