Files for a short course at the Department of Economics of the U. of Copenhagen. These notebooks are stored as Julia markdown files. They can be converted to Jupyter notebooks using the Weave package for Julia.
First download and install Julia. For the most part access to the data sets and creation of graphics is done with R so you should have R installed. In Julia there are several packages to install
using Pkg; Pkg.add("Weave", "IJulia", "RCall", "MixedModels")
There are others but these get you started. Adding a package is similar to calling install.packages
in R. This is the stage at which the code for the package is downloaded and prepared for use.
It is probably easiest to use these notebooks in Jupyter. For that they need to be converted from .jmd
to .ipynb
format. A sample call to do this is
using Weave # similar to a call to library in R or import in Python - loads a package in the current session
convert_doc("01-Packages.jmd", "01-Packages.ipynb")
If you already have jupyter or jupyter lab installed just start it and open the .ipynb
files. If not, you may be able to start jupyter with
using IJulia
notebook()
