dear fellows !
maybe the following /I am sure that it is/ is useful for someone :
for version 8
I do:
clear
set obs 3
input y
1. 1
2. 0
3. 0
then I type do faq:
. capture program drop nlfaq
. program nlfaq
1. if "`1'" == "?" {
2. global S_1 " A B C"
3. global A=1
4. global B=1
5. global C=1
6. exit
7. }
8. tempvar yh
9. gen `yh'= exp($A) + $B * $C + cos($B)+ tan($B) - 2 in 1
10. replace `yh'= $A/$B +$C^2-log($B) in 2
11. replace `yh'= $A/($A+$B+$C)- sin($C) in 3
12. replace `1' = `yh'
13.
. end
. nl faq y
