【转】几种统计软件的比较
最近经常听到网友想知道数学模型在区域经济学中应用到什么程度,要用到什么软件,应用都什么程度。本人在国外刚好看到有这方面的介绍,现copy给大家(是英文,不过很简单,我没时间翻译了,相信大家理解没问题),再结合自己的使用经验,分析一下几种常用软件使用的优劣势。

This package is designed for estimating linear structural equation models. It is particularly well suited for models with latent variables or measurement error components. Bootstrap methods are provided for the computation of standard errors. While this is not a general purpose econometrics package, it is useful in specialized applications. A free student version is available for Windows and OS/2 platforms. 2dmTy'Y H/A

LIMDEP 8.0 gh(oc:ja
This econometrics software package was written by William Greene, the author of Econometric Methods. LIMDEP is updated frequently and contains state-of-the-art estimators. LIMDEP contains estimators for most single-equation and simultaneous equation econometric models. No other package contains as diverse a mix of estimators for limited dependent variable models. It''s only weakness is its limited capabilities for dealing with time-series models. ~b1}2^jAW
