Elasticities matrices ERROR

nassimsa — Mon, 23 Apr 2018 20:47:48 GMT

Hello

I am a beginner in SAS and i need to make elasticities matrices on it. I did my best to use the PDF code provided by SAS for a translog function but i have an ERROR that i am trying to solv for more than a weak and still nothing.

Please if you can hel i need to get the result ASAP.

Thanks a lot

Haven't looked through all the error messages, but at line 399 you do a lot of concatenation of matrices. However, there is a mismatch between the dimensions as one of the vectors has 4 columns and another has 5.

Use

show names;

to check the attributes of all of the matrices in your current IML session and work from there.

Thank you very much for your prompt reply and for the help.

It was as you said a problem of dimension and i replaced this part :

"read all var {gcc gcg gcf gch gce gcs};

380 read all var {ggg ggf ggh gge ggs};

381 read all var {ghh ghf ghe ghs};

382 read all var {gee gef ges};

383 read all var {gss gsf};"

I didn't include all the vectors so to avoid having one with 4 and another with 5 i did this :

read all var {gcc gcg gcf gch gce gcs ggc ggg ggf ggh gge ggs ghc ghg ghf ghh ghe ghs gec geg gef geh gee ges gsc gsg gsf gsh gse gss};

No problem 🙂 Glad you found your answer.
