gecon_shock_info-class: 'gecon_shock_info' class

In gEcon: General Equilibrium Economic Modelling Language and Solution Framework (gEcon)

Description

The class storing information about shocks selected by the user.

Slots

r_object_name:

a character string. The name of an R object of gecon_model class storing the model for which simulations have been performed.

shocks:

a character vector of shocks' names.

cov_matrix:

a numeric matrix containing columns of shock covariance matrix corresponding to selected shocks.

cov_matrix_flag:

a logical value. Set to TRUE when the user enters non-default data into a covariance matrix of shocks.

incid_mat:

an object of Matrix class representing the mapping of shocks to equations.

Methods

print

signature(x = "gecon_shock_info"): Prints all the available information (the incidence matrix, the covariance matrix) about the shocks which were selected when creating a gecon_shock_info-class object.

show

signature(object = "gecon_shock_info"): Prints all the available information (the incidence matrix, the covariance matrix) about the shocks which were selected when creating a gecon_shock_info-class object.

summary

signature(object = "gecon_shock_info"): Prints all the available information (the incidence matrix, the covariance matrix) about the shocks which were selected when creating a gecon_shock_info-class object.

See Also

shock_info creates an object of gecon_shock_info class. gecon_var_info-class and gecon_par_info-class are similar classes storing the information about variables and parameters, respectively.

Examples

# copy the example to the current working directory
file.copy(from = file.path(system.file("examples", package = "gEcon"),
          "rbc.gcn"), to = getwd())

# make and load the model
rbc <- make_model("rbc.gcn")

# solve the model
rbc <- steady_state(rbc)
rbc <- solve_pert(rbc)
rbc <- set_shock_cov_mat(rbc, cov_matrix = matrix(0.01, 1, 1),
                         shock_order = "epsilon_Z")
rbc <- compute_model_stats(rbc,  ref_var = "Y")

# create an object of gecon_shock_info class and display info about the shocks
rbc_shock_info <- shock_info(rbc, all = TRUE)
print(rbc_shock_info)
summary(rbc_shock_info)
show(rbc_shock_info)
