Re: [Gretl-users] Problems when trying to interac with R

Dear Allin, dear Sven, thank you very much. I am not sure whether I can leave out the nan-values. My aim is to use the LASSO procedure on a recursive basis to retrieve predictions (>100) for more than 1.000 dependent variables instead of using a kitchen sink ols model. Constructing an appropriate loop that only passes a vector holding a dependent variable if it contains valid data, along with a matrix of independent variables might be possible. I am not sure whether my meager programming skills will be enough, but I will definitely give it a try.

Jan, if you don't want to unnerve your admin again, in general it might be advisable to keep the missings out of the stuff that is passed to R in the first place (if that's doable). My feeling is that it would be cleaner anyway, apart from avoiding this particular bug. cheers, sven _______________________________________________ Gretl-users mailing list Gretl-users(a)lists.wfu.edu http://lists.wfu.edu/mailman/listinfo/gretl-users _______________________________________________ Gretl-users mailing list Gretl-users(a)lists.wfu.edu http://lists.wfu.edu/mailman/listinfo/gretl-users
