Caixa de texto: Preliminary Reading and Basic requirements for Matlab and Dynare

Caixa de texto: We expect students to read Gali (2008) chapters 1-3 before the course. As the course is software based we expect students to be familiar with the basics of Matlab and Dynare. Documentation to familiarize with Matlab is available on the Mathworks website and summarized below. We do not expect students to be familiar with advanced programming techniques in Matlab but a basic knowledge of matrix and array operations, graphics and programming skills is required to understand the material of the course.

1. Getting Started with Matlab documentation.
