Hello world ๐! Are you an economist, or economics student, or just a random person like me who is interested in economics? Do you want to write a paper, a thesis, or just ramble on some stuffs but don't have any fresh ideas on what should be the topic? Worry no more! Because, this repository is for you!
I migrated all datasets to Dropbox and thus repository size decresases significatnly. Alas, in order to be downloadable, a folder must be less than 20 GB AND has fewer 10,000 total files. So you have to click Save to Dropbox
and sync to your local machine. Following are the URLs:
You can run the codes on your machine by cloning or downloading this repository.
# if you clone then .git directory will be included on your machine
git clone https://github.com/ledwindra/nber.git
cd nber
# if you download as zip, then .git direcotry won't be included on your machine
# preferable if you don't want to know about the nitty-gritty details about git
wget https://github.com/ledwindra/nber/archive/refs/heads/main.zip
unzip nber-main
cd nber-main
When it's all ready, you may want to use virtual environment before installing all of the required packages so that won't affect your globally installed packages on your machine.
# create a virtual environment -> .venv is the folder, you can change
python -m venv .venv
# this applies for linux/macos
source .venv/bin/activate
# windows
env/Scripts/activate.bat
# install packages
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -r requirements.txt
What can be done from this dataset? Well, let's take a look at /notebook/index.ipynb
