Custom estimation tables

Jeff Pitblado

Abstract

This presentation illustrates how to construct custom tables from one or more estimation commands.
I demonstrate how to add custom labels for significant coefficients and make targeted style edits to cells in the table using the following commands:
  • collect get
  • collect dir
  • collect dims
  • collect levelsof
  • collect label list
  • collect label values
  • collect layout
  • collect query header
  • collect style header
  • collect style showbase
  • collect style row
  • collect style cell
  • collect query column
  • collect style column
  • collect style stars
  • collect query column
  • collect preview
  • etable
 
I begin with a description of what constitutes a collection and how items (numeric and string results) in a collection are tagged (identified) and conclude with a simple workflow to enable users to build their own custom tables from estimation commands. This presentation motivates the construction of estimation tables and concludes with the convenience command etable.
