Location of the simulated series with simul_replic>0

Stochastic simulations

Hi,

It appears that the simulated series by stoch_simul with simul_replic>0 is not saved in the supposed location indicated by the manual. The file is saved in the binary file named “OutputFILENAME_simul” in folder “FILENAME”. Probably “Output” is intended as a folder name.

I am using Dynare 5.1 on Mac OS 12.3.1.

Thanks!

This is an example code that I reproduced the bug:

var x;

varexo e;

model(linear);

x = 0.9*x(-1) + e;

end;

shocks;

var e; stderr 1;

end;

stoch_simul(order=1,periods=200,simul_replic=10,nograph);

Thanks for pointing this out. This is indeed a bug. You can track its status at simult.m: fix saving of binary file (!2020) · Merge requests · Dynare / dynare · GitLab
