GAUSS is a matrix programming language, well suited to econometric and statistical applications. GAUSS is fast and very powerful, but requires the user to learn some basic programming skills. This can be a significant commitment and the available learning resources are of variable quality and few and far between.

This site contains links to some of Felix Ritchie's code snippets, contact details for a query, news about this site and GAUSS, and a guide to programming GAUSS. This last item is the core of this site. The guide is intended to teach users how to program in GAUSS, rather than showing them how to solve specific problems (although it does include most of the basics along the way). A more technical exposition, with exercises and movie clips to illustrate aspects of the interface, is currently in production and will be published as book and CD in the near future.

Dr Ritchie provides private training and consultancy in GAUSS. For details, please email him.
