Hi! I have a problem, a saved session will not replay what I did manually.
My step-by-step approach: Open CSV File (Colon, Point) Yes, use as time series Time Series Options: Yeary, Quarterly, Monthly, Weekly, Daily (5, 6, 7), Hourly, Decadic (translated from german, may not be exact, also on following terms). I'm missing "daily (1)"? So I just choose "Other: 24" for my purposes. That interprets as "Hourly, 1:01 to 1:24". But it's not the problem I wanted to discuss: After importing, I do Model - Time Series - ARIMA temp as dependent, hour as non-dependend variable All other settings on standard: AR 1, I 0, MA 1, Seasonals all on 0. Use constant, do not show iteration details, do Hesse matrix, no X-12-Arima, exact maximum likelihood OK => function calculations: 91, gradient: 37, ... In this window, I use the menu to: Analysis, Prognosis, add 6 automatic prognosis plot previous 24 OK And I get the graph I want to see. So far, so good. Now I save this session in gretl with File - Session - Save Session. I open the resulting file in WinRar and get the .INP file. # Log started 2009-10-19 08:57 # recording of session commands. please not this must most likely # be edited before executing open C:\TempData1.csv setobs 24 1:01 --special-time-series # Modell 1 arima 1 0 1 ; 2 1 0 fcasterr 2:01 2:06 gnuplot temp --with-lines --time-series And I get the error ? fcasterr 2:01 2:06 Observation Number out of boundaries (Beobachtungsnummer außerhalb der Grenzen) What am I missing, I thought the session should at least replay?
