			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Creating tables in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaTeX" title="LaTeX on wikipedia">LaTeX</a>  may become quite difficult and cumbersome, especially for big tables and tables that have a more complicated structure. A spreadsheet can come in handy at this point. Indeed, there are tools that can translate spreadsheet tables into LaTeX code. Thus you can create the table in a nearly <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WYSIWIG" title="What You See Is What You Get">WYSIWIG</a> way and collect the LaTeX code at the end of the day. Here are three ways to create LaTeX tables by using a spreadsheet.</p>
<h3>Gnumeric</h3>
<p>In <a href="http://www.gnome.org/projects/gnumeric/" title="Gnumeric Homepage">Gnumeric</a>, a table can directly be saved in LaTeX format (.tex). This option is availabe under the &#8220;File -&gt; Save As&#8221; Menu. There are two possibilities. First, you can save it as a standalone LaTeX document. With this option, the table&#8217;s formatting is preserved (bold text, merged cells, &#8230;). Second you can save the file as a &#8220;table fragment&#8221;. This gives only minimal LaTeX code to be insetrted into a &#8220;tabular&#8221; environment. If you decide to go this way, you will loose all the formatting you may have applied in Gnumeric.</p>
<h3>OpenOffice.org Calc</h3>
<p>As opposed to Gnumeric, there is no &#8220;Save As LaTeX&#8221; option in <a href="http://www.openoffice.org" title="ooo">OpenOffice.org</a> <a href="http://www.openoffice.org/product/calc.html" title="ooo calc">Calc</a>. However, there is a macro, <a href="http://calc2latex.sourceforge.net/" title="Calc2LaTeX Homepage">Calc2LaTeX</a>, that allows to convert a table into LaTeX code. The code can be copied to the clipboard or can be written into anew file. Calc2LaTeX preserves the formatting and makes available a dialogue box to customize the outputted LaTeX code. Installation and usage instructions can be found on the Calc2LaTeX homepage.</p>
<h3>Microsoft Excel</h3>
<p>If you are using MS Excel, you may be interested in the <a href="http://www.jam-software.com/freeware/index.shtml#excel2latex">Excel2LaTeX</a> macro. It is quite similar to Calc2LaTeX, but less universal, as it is a &#8220;Microsoft only&#8221; solution &#8230;</p>
<h3>KSpread</h3>
<p>I am not aware if a similar tool exists in <a href="http://www.koffice.org/kspread/" title="Koffice">KSpread</a>, the spreadsheet appplication of <a href="http://www.koffice.org" title="KSpread">KOffice</a>. If you know more, just drop me a line.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Le package plm, écrit par Yves Croissant, offre une boîte à outils intéressante pour l&#8217;estimation de modèles de panel sous <a href="http://www.r-project.org/">R</a>.  Bien sûr, il y a des packages comme nlme ou lmer qui permettent à priori d&#8217;estimer ce genre de modèles et bien plus. Et ces packages existent depuis un moment. Or, plm s&#8217;adresse plutôt à un public d&#8217;économètres ou de personnes familières avec le jargon économétrique.</p>
<p>Le noyau du package plm est une fonction homonyme. Elle permet d&#8217;estimer toute une panoplie de modèles sur des panels cylindrés et non-cylindrés. On retrouve aussi des routines pour effectuer des tests de spécification dont notamment le test de Hausman. Finalement, plm offre aussi des fonctions utiles et pratiques pour la manipulation des données de panel.</p>
<p>Le package est bien documenté. Il contient notamment un document d&#8217;une vigntaine de page qui explique de manière tout à fait claire comment utiliser plm. Ce document est disponible en anglais et en fraçais. Une fois que le package est installé, le document peut-être consulté en utilisant la commande suivante:</p>
<blockquote><p>vignette(&#8220;plmFR&#8221;)</p></blockquote>
<p>pour la version française, ou</p>
<blockquote><p> vignette(&#8220;plmEN&#8221;)</p></blockquote>
<p>pour la version anglaise.</p>
<p>Bien entendu, ces &#8220;vignettes&#8221; ne remplacent en aucun cas un bon livre, repspectivement un bon cours sur l&#8217;économétrie des panels.</p>
<p>plm est disponible sur CRAN et peut donc être installé directement à partir de R. Sinon, on retrouve tout ce qu&#8217;il faut sur <a href="http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Descriptions/plm.html">la page CRAN dédiée à plm</a>.</p>
<p>Alternativement, plm est diponible via les <a href="http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Views/">CRAN Task Views</a>, et plus précisément via le paquet <a href="http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Views/Econometrics.html">Econometrics</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Voici une petite recette de cuisine pour télécharger et convertir des fichiers de données sous <a href="http://www.r-project.org/" title="Un superbe logiciel">R</a>. Nous allons télécharger un  jeu de données utilisé dans le livre de Marno Verbeek, <a href="http://www.econ.kuleuven.ac.be/GME/" title="Site internet du boquin">A Guide to Modern Econometrics</a>. Il s&#8217;agit des données utilisées dans le chapitre 10, &#8220;Models Based on Panel Data&#8221;. Evidemment, on pourrait télécharger les fichiers en question à l&#8217;aide d&#8217;un <a href="http://www.mozilla.com/" title="THE fureteur">fureteur</a> et l&#8217;enregistrer quelque part sur son ordinateur. Ici nous allons demander à R de s&#8217;occuper de cette manip. Voyons un peu &#8230;</p>
<p>Le fichier en question s&#8217;apelle &#8220;males.dta&#8221;. Par ailleurs, Marno Verbeek nous fournit une petit description de ce jeu de données dans un fichier appelé &#8220;males.txt&#8221;. Plus précisément, nous allons passer par les étapes suivantes:</p>
<ol>
<li>Télécharger le jeu de données</li>
<li>Télécharger la documentation qui va avec</li>
<li>Importer les données sous R</li>
<li>Afficher la documentation</li>
<li>Regarder la structure du jeu de données</li>
<li>Faire une manip sur les noms des variables</li>
<li>Exporter les données en format csv</li>
</ol>
<p>Toutes les comamndes requises sont disponibles sous forme d&#8217;un <a href="http://librecono.googlepages.com/dlco1.r">petit script</a>. Le fichier contient aussi toute une série de commentaires sur les différentes opérations. Ce fichier peut être affiché dans un <a href="http://www.framasoft.net/rubrique157.html">éditeur de texte</a>. Vous pouvez aussi lancer R, et lui demander d&#8217;exécuter les commandes en tapant:</p>
<blockquote><p>source(url(&#8220;http://librecono.googlepages.com/dlco1.r&#8221;))</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have recently read an interesting paper by <a href="http://www.dur.ac.uk/dbs/faculty/staff/profile/?username=dbr0gb1">Giovanni Baiocchi</a> on how to use <a href="http://www.perl.com/">Perl</a> in Data Processing and Statistical Computing. It contains quite a few examples and code snippets, making it a nice ressource to learn the Perl language.</p>
<p>Abstract:</p>
<blockquote><p>In this paper we show how Perl, an expressive and extensible high-level programming  language, with network and object-oriented programming support, can be used in processing  data for statistics and statistical computing. The paper is organized in two parts. In  Part I, we introduce the Perl programming language, with particular emphasis on the features  that distinguish it from conventional languages. Then, using practical examples, we demonstrate how Perl’s distinguishing features make it particularly well suited to perform  labor intensive and sophisticated tasks ranging from the preparation of data to the writing  of statistical reports. In Part II we show how Perl can be extended to perform statistical  computations using modules and by “embedding” specialized statistical applications. We  provide example on how Perl can be used to do simple statistical analyses, perform complex  statistical computations involving matrix algebra and numerical optimization, and  make statistical computations more easily reproducible. We also investigate the numerical  and statistical reliability of various Perl statistical modules. Important computing issues  such as ease of use, speed of calculation, and efficient memory usage, are also considered.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="left">Thanks to  João Pedro Azevedo, there is a <a href="http://ideas.repec.org/c/boc/bocode/s449001.html">routine called -dfl- to do a DiNardo-Fortin-Lemieux decomposition in Stata</a>.  Unfortunately, this routine is only available for Stata 8 or higher. Yes, I know, Stata has meanwhile released version 9, but there are still quite a few among us that are using Stata 7 (or less), for any reason whatsoever.  Here I provide some &#8220;rough&#8221; code to do the DFL decomposition in Stata 7 (I don&#8217;t know if it will work under a lower version &#8230;).</p>
<p align="left">Here is the reference for the DFL paper:</p>
<blockquote><p>J. DiNardo, N. Fortin and T. Lemieux, 1996, &#8220;Labor Market Institutions and the Distribution of Wages, 1973-1992 : A Semiparametric Analysis&#8221;, Econometrica, Vol. 64, September, pp.1001-1044</p></blockquote>

<p align="left">The script can be downloaded here: <a href="http://librecono.googlepages.com/dfl7.do" title="dfl7.do">dfl7.do</a>. Some comments are included.</p>
<p align="left">There are also routines for other related techniques that may be relevant if you are interested in decompositions of outcome differentials (such as e.g. wages):</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://ideas.repec.org/c/boc/bocode/s450604.html">oaxaca </a> Blinder-Oaxaca decompositions</li>
<li><a href="http://ideas.repec.org/c/boc/bocode/s425101.html">decomp</a>  an alternative for Blinder-Oaxaca decompositions</li>
<li><a href="http://" title="http://ideas.repec.org/c/boc/bocode/s444103.html">decompose</a>  Blinder-Oaxaca decompositions for Stata 7</li>
<li><a href="http://ideas.repec.org/c/boc/bocode/s448803.html">jmpierce</a>  Juhn-Murphy-Pierce decompositions</li>
<li><a href="http://ideas.repec.org/c/boc/bocode/s448804.html">jmpierce2</a> Juhn-Murphy-Pierce trend decompositions</li>
<li><a href="http://ideas.repec.org/c/boc/bocode/s448805.html">smithwelch</a> Smith and Welch (1989) trend decompositions</li>
<li><a href="http://ideas.repec.org/c/boc/bocode/s456727.html">fairlie</a> Nonlinear decomposition of binary outcome differentials</li>
</ul>
<p align="left">Note that these routines require Stata 8.2 or higher. If your computer is connected to the Internet, the easiest and safest way to install the routines mentionned here is to use Stata&#8217;s -<a href="http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?ssc">ssc</a>- command. For example, if you want to install the -oaxaca- package, you have to type the following command in Stata:</p>
<blockquote>
<p align="left">ssc install oaxaca</p>
</blockquote>
<p align="left">and likewise for the other packages.</p>
