V. NLOGIT Software Short Manuals: This section contains a brief introduction and two manuals: The short introduction is a “getting started.” The LIMDEP manual explains the basics of using LIMDEP and NLOGIT. (LIMDEP is embedded in NLOGIT). The NLOGIT manual contains descriptions of how to use the special features for discrete choice modeling with NLOGIT (as well as some additonal material on other discrete choice models that are also contained in LIMDEP). The setup file contains an installation kit for installing a copy of NLOGIT made specially for this course on your own computer. You should download the setup file to your own computer and execute it there, rather than launching it from your web browser. Left click to activate. Right click to download.
