Preface
This text describes a set of MATLAB functions that implement a host of
econometric estimation methods. Toolboxes are the name given by the
MathWorks to related sets of MATLAB functions aimed at solving a particular
class of problems. Toolboxes of functions useful in signal processing,
optimization, statistics, ¯nance and a host of other areas are available from
the MathWorks as add-ons to the standard MATLAB software distribution.
I use the term Econometrics Toolbox to refer to the collection of function
libraries described in this book.
