Intermediate test
Dear students,
please remember that, in order to sit the intermediate test, it is necessary to sign up on Delphi.
Students which are still not enrolled can write me an email before the registration deadline.
Any request submitted after the deadline will not be considered.

First lecture
Dear students,
the course in Coding for Economic Applications will start next monday.
You will need a pc with Matlab and RStudio. Please download and install them on your pc.
# MATLAB
The installation procedure is described at the page
https://docs.ccd.uniroma2.it/matlab/
During the procedure, you should also install the following toolboxes
- Statistics and Machine Learning
- Econometrics
Students waiting for the university enrolment cannot install Matlab using the campus licence. They can, however, temporarily use an open source alternative.
For example, you can install
- Octave
https://www.gnu.org/software/octave/
- Scilab
https://www.scilab.org/
Both of them are available under Linux, macOS and Windows.
Even if these alternatives are suitable for the first lectures, the recommendation is to install Matlab as soon as possible.
# RStudio
You can find R and RStudio at the links
https://cran.r-project.org/
https://posit.co/download/rstudio-desktop/#download
Download both of them, then install (in this order) R and RStudio.
