First lecture
Dear students,
the course in Coding for Economic Applications will start next monday.
You can subscribe to the MS Team using the code
i3md35r
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 can 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/
They are both available for 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://www.rstudio.com/products/rstudio/download/#download
Download both of them, then install (in this order) R and RStudio.
