Python for Economists


I’ve translated my note Python para economistas from December 2017 to English. It is available as a pdf file here. You can also download it as a Jupyter notebook from my GitHub repository, in case you want to easily run the code.

This note encourages economists to learn Python, by showing examples of everyday tasks that are well too common to economists. You can read the note below.

If you want to replicate the first two examples, you will need to install the compecon package using  pip –which will be in your computer if you’ve installed Anaconda–, by typing:

pip install compecon

at a terminal point.
