Hi there,
I wonder if any one can help. I recently purchased LIMDEP version 4 and
to familiarize myself with it
I have been working my way through Applied choice analysis A primer by
Hensher Rose and Greene using their data set downloaded from
www.cambride.org/0521605776 I was doing fine until I got to page 332
when I put in the command
NLOGIT
;lhs = choice, cset, altij
;Choices = cart, carnt, bus, train, busway, LR
;asc
;Model:
U(cart) = asccart + cst*fuel /
U(carnt) = asccarnt + cst*fuel /
U(bus) = ascbus + cst*fare /
U(train) = asctn + cst*fare /
U(busway) = ascbusw + cst*fare /
U(LR) = cst*fare $
I get this which is not what the book says I should be getting!!!!
Can anyone suggest what I might be doing wrong!
Many thanks
Miranda
