What kind of pseudo R-square do you want? There are several. 

Note that in your program, which seems uncannily familiar somehow, you
calculate z2, z3, z4 but never do anything with them. Depending on what
you want to do, that's a bug or a superfluity.

While performing the simulation for Probit model, how could we
calculate the RMSE and Pseudo R square? If it was OLS, we could just
use the formula and could do it in Excel but I could not use the
formula for Probit, since our Y is (0,1). There might be some code
that would help me find these. I would appreciate if anybody could
help me. My simulation so far looks like this. Could you please add
something in it?
