NOTE: The programs for simulating the EDO model are written for use with the Dynare software package. The Dynare package can be downloaded without cost at www.dynare.org. While Dynare itself is free, it requires the installation of either Matlab or Octave. Matlab is a commercial product available at www.mathworks.com.
Octave is free-ware, and is available at www.gnu.org/software/octave.
