Functions provide a result that you can either store into a variable, or
display via the "eval" command.
I'm wondering whether the function/console usage is really wanted here.
To just see the autocorrelations of a time series and the associated
test statistics in the graphical gretl program, go to the "Variable"
menu and choose "Correlogram" (or its respective translation).
Alternatively, right-click on the series with the mouse.
