Re: [Gretl-users] new GUI convenience: index series

-----Original Message----- From: gretl-users-bounces(a)lists.wfu.edu [mailto:gretl-users- bounces(a)lists.wfu.edu] On Behalf Of Allin Cottrell Sent: Thursday, December 07, 2017 8:11 PM To: Gretl users Subject: [Gretl-users] new GUI convenience: index series In git and snapshots there's a new GUI convenience: point-and-click construction of 100-based indices of selected time series. It's not rocket science to construct such series via scripting or console, but I wanted this for classroom use -- when using gretl for displaying data in a macroeconomics class, for example. Case in point: From a blank slate, open the fedstl database and import the series nicur (National Income), wascur (Wages and Salaries) and cpatax (Corporate profits after tax). Set the sample range to start in 2000:1. Swipe across the 3 series, right click, and choose "Add index values". Then swipe across the three newly created "i_*" index series, right click and do "Time series plot" (on a single graph). You can immediately see why US corporations are in great need of a tax cut... not!
