[R] ARIMA - h-step ahead errors

Dear colleagues, “arima” returns directly the 1-step ahead errors but I am interested in obtaining other h-step ahead errors for several ARIMA models I have fitted. Is there any way I can obtain this with R? Any help would be appreciated. Sincerely, Nuno Prista

Re: [R] ARIMA - h-step ahead errors

I have looked at the predict.Arima and its a fact that it returns the s.e. for several steps ahead. What I was wondering was if there was a way to access to the h-step ahead fitted innovations that underlie them. Nuno Prof Brian Ripley wrote: On Sat, 18 Oct 2008, Nuno Prista wrote: Dear
