| Christopher Cornwell Useful Links for ECONOMETRICS [Updated Spring 2012] General Econometrics The Econometrics Journal site provides a links page covering a wide range econometrics resources on the internet, from people to programming. Econometrics Software The Terry College supports Mathematica, Matlab, RATS, SAS,
SPSS,
Stata and TSP. Students should contact
the Terry College Office of Information Technology (OIT) for access to
these programs. OIT provides a complete listing of Terry's
research computing resources on its site. Mathworks provides Matlab tutorials and links to other off-site resources. You will find many resources for
learning Stata at the company's website. Some of the best are
available through UCLA's Academic Technology Services, which provides
public access to detailed
guides to using Stata, including seminars with video
demonstrations. The Carolina Population Center at UNC offers a Stata
tutorial. Online
Stata training can also be found at LSE's Research
Laboratory. The SAS Institute provides a number of applications of its ETS module. Good general SAS help can be found through this Indiana University page. TeX and LaTeX From the TeX FAQ: `TeX is a typesetting system written by Donald Knuth, who says in the Preface to his book on TeX (see books about TeX) that it is "intended for the creation of beautiful books - and especially for books that contain a lot of mathematics".' LaTeX is a popular TeX macro package. For an up-to-date implementation of TeX, LaTeX and related programs for Windows (all current variants) try MikTeX. Many useful TeX resources can be found TeX Users' Group (TUG) site. Another good place to find help is through Hildebrand's TeX Resources page. Beamer is a LaTeX class that allows you to produce slide presentations (like PowerPoint) in a LaTeX environment. It is included with the MikTeX distribution.
The Terry College research server runs a version of the unix operating system. For help understanding unix, consult UNIXhelp for Users or the Unix Tutorial for Beginners.
