Programming

Resources for learning how to program

I do (most of) my programming in Python. 

I can recommend the following courses:

1. Introduction to Programming and Numerical Analysis. If you want to start from knowing nothing to solving multi-period models with uncertainty and constraints.

2. Advanced Macroeconomics: Heterogenous Agent Models. If you are interested in consumption-saving models in partial and general equilibrium.

3. Household Behavior Over the Life-Cycle. If you are interested in labor, public, gender and familiy economics from a structural perspective.

4. Mini-course (PhD):  Heterogeneous Agent Macro

I have written the following Python-packages:

1. EconModel and EconModelNotebooks. Any economic model I build in Python use this package.
   You can skip the C++ part the first time around (I can recommend w3schools to learn C++). 

2. ConSav and associated ConSavNotebooks. Used to solve consumption-saving models.

3. GEModelTools and associated GEModelToolsNotebooks. Used to solve heterogenous agent general equilibrium model.
