Dear gretl community,
I am trying to program some dynamic multipliers on gretl.
Unfortunately, I've got some problems. Consider the following part of
the script:
-----------------------------------
scalar h = 60
scalar k = 1
matrix mtheta = {0.035316 ; -0.021316 ; -0.012700}
mtheta
mpsi = zeros(h,k)
mpsi[1,] = mtheta[1,]
mpsi[1+1,] = vphi[1:1]*mpsi[1:1,] + mtheta[1+1,]
mpsi[2+1,] = vphi[1:2]*mpsi[2:1,] + mtheta[2+1,] #Stops here
Matrix indexation ranges have to be left-to-right or
top-to-bottom, but if you need the values backwards you can
use, e.g.,
mreverse(mpsi[1:2,]) # as if mpsi[2:1,]

Dear Sven and Allin,
Thanks for the reply. I am not sure whether I understood your comments
correctly.
Let me post some more stuff of the code:
----------------------------------------------
function matrix mplier(scalar a, matrix b, matrix varphi, matrix vpi,
scalar l, scalar h, scalar k)
vphi = zeros(1,l)
vphi[1] = 1 + a + varphi[1]
loop for (i=2; i=l-1; i+=1)
vphi[i] = varphi[i] - varphi[i-1]
endloop
vphi[l] = -varphi[l-1]
mtheta = zeros(l+1,k)
mtheta[1,] = vpi[1,]
mtheta[2,] = vpi[2,] - vpi[1,] + b
loop for (i=3; i=l; i+=1)
mtheta[i,] = vpi[i,] - vpi[i-1,]
endloop
mtheta[l+1,] = -vpi[l-1,]
mpsi = zeros(h,k)
mpsi[1,] = mtheta[1,]
loop for (i=1; i=l; i+=1)
mpsi[1+i,] = vphi[1:i]*mpsi[i:1,] + mtheta[1+i,]
endloop
mpsi[1+1,] = vphi[1:1]*mpsi[1:1,] + mtheta[1+1,] #run the loop manually
mpsi[2+1,] = vphi[1:2]*mpsi[2:1,] + mtheta[2+1,] #run the loop manually
mpsi[3+1,] = vphi[1:3]*mpsi[3:1,] + mtheta[3+1,] #run the loop manually
loop for (i=l+1; i=h-1; i+=1)
mpsi[i+1,] = vphi*mpsi[i:i-l+1,]
endloop
end function
-----------------------------------------------
The first two blocks run fine and I obtain the same results as in
gauss. The third block makes trouble. The corresponding Gauss code -
which works fine - for the third block is:
GAUSS-------------------------------
mpsi = zeros(h,k) ;
mpsi[1,.] = mtheta[1,.] ;
for i (1,l,1) ;
mpsi[i+1,.] = vphi[1:i]*mpsi[i:1,.] + mtheta[i+1,.] ;
endfor ;
for i (l+1,h-1,1) ;
mpsi[i+1,.] = vphi*mpsi[i:i-l+1,.] ;
endfor ;
----------------------------------------
There I dont obtain an error running the loop. I am really not sure
how to translate the GAUSSian code lines into proper gretl-language.
The mreverse command did not help really.
Best,
Artur

I'm not sure what mpsi[i:1,.] does exactly in Gauss for i>1, but in
gretl mpsi[i:1,] is only allowed for i<=1 (well, and i>=0 I guess).
So depending on what Gauss really does there, you want either mpsi[1:i,]
or mreverse(mpsi[1:i,]), AFAICS. So why doesn't mreverse help?

The problem here seems to be that "mpsi[i:1,]" is not legal in gretl if
i>1. In gauss, "x[4:2]" is equivalent to "mreverse(x[2:4])" in
gretl.

Thank you for your replies Roccardo, Sven and Allin!
You were right Riccardo, the syntax in Gauss is just the other way around.
I've got another issue with the "loop for" command. I attached a part
of the code. The three loops do not seem to work for some reason. If I
run the same procedure line by line everything works fine.
I use gretl cvs (2010-10-04) on WinXP.

The problem here seems to be that "mpsi[i:1,]" is not legal in gretl if
i>1.
In gauss, "x[4:2]" is equivalent to "mreverse(x[2:4])" in gretl.
