Z_names	Indicates (with names or column numbers) the vectors with individual data
X_names	Indicates (with names or column numbers) the vectors with alternative data
data	Dataset to be used
print_detail	Controls the output detail of maxLik (default is set at 3)

Details

Optimization occurs via the maxLik package for an obtimization of a conditional logit model

Value

A (maxLik) object with the estimates (maxLik) together with the indicators of the alternative chosen, the vectors with individual data, the vectors with city/regional data and the name of the reference alternative

Examples

code_name <- c("mun_code")
Z_names <- c("age","income")
X_names <- c("lnprice","nature","monuments")
