Matlab Functions in Dynare 4

[sebastien]

Hi

In Dynare v4, only some functions are allowed in the model block. See:

Pound lines again

Hi, In Dynare v4, the set of authorized functions inside the model block is limited to standard functions (arithmetic operators, sqrt, log, exp, trigonometry…). This is due to the fact that in Dynare v4 we compute analytical derivatives of the model, while in Dynare v3 we were only computing numerical derivatives. Therefore, we need to know the analytical derivative of any function used in the model block. In future releases of Dynare, we will introduce the possibility of using arbitrary funct…

However, normcdf() is supported and should work in the model block.

Maybe you could give us more information (the version of Dynare you are using, the MOD file and the exact error message) ?

Best
