mfbvar (version 0.5.6)

print.mfbvar_prior: Print method for mfbvar_prior

Description

Printing method for object of class mfbvar_prior, checking if information in the prior is sufficient for estimating models.

Usage

# S3 method for mfbvar_prior
print(x, ...)

Arguments

x

prior object (class mfbvar_prior)

...

additional arguments (currently unused)

Value

No return value, called for side effects.

Details

The print method checks whether the steady-state and Minnesota priors can be used with the current specification. This check is minimal in the sense that it checks only prior elements with no defaults, and it only checks for estimation and not forecasting (for which the steady-state prior requires additional information).
