Hi,
I am running a bunch of non-linear least square regressions involving over
100 fixed effects (countries and industries). Interactive command of "nl"
gives me an error message saying ". too long." This is a well-known problem.
I am wondering if you are so kind to share with me some sample code that
does this task. In particular, how can I call the nl evaluator without
explicitly typing up hundreds of b1, b2, b3 . in the calling command.
Can I do something like the following
nl test @ y x _I*, nparameters(200) initial({b} 1)
where {b} captures all unspecified coefficients?
Thanks in advance.
