Re: Error: <3 invalid name


There should be some lines higher up indicating where in the code the error is occurring. Can you provide these? Alternatively could you create a Stata log file where you run with command with trace on and post that?


Hi Chris,

Here is the output from the log (wouldn't let me attach .smcl, so ...

Re: Error: <3 invalid name

Hi Chris,

Thanks so much for your help. I ran the following code:
ssc install runmlwin
global MLwiN path "C:\Program Files\MLwiN v3.00\mlwin.exe"
set trace on
runmlwin bpitot cons, level1(ccmmid:cons)


And got this result:
<3 invalid name
r(198);

I have noticed from other posts that there are ...

Error: <3 invalid name

Hello,

Has anyone come across the following error using runmlwin (and if so, could you please share a suggested remedy)?

<3 invalid name

I get this after running the following code for a null model:

Code: Select all

runmlwin bpitot cons, level1(ccmmid:cons) nopause
Thank you!

Median Odds Ratio & 95% CrI

Hello! I was wondering if there is a command in runmlwin for the calculation of MORs and the associated 95% credible intervals? Thanks!

Re: MCMC estimates when IGLS algorithm fails to converge

Thanks, Chris! I bump into this issue only after I add a covariate with a large number of missing observations that decreases my sample size to: level-1, n=1135; l-2, n=430; l-3, n=89; l-4, n=457. Before proceeding with the diagnostics that you helpfully suggest, I just wanted to be sure that this ...

MCMC estimates when IGLS algorithm fails to converge

Hello,

I am running a cross-classified binary logit model using the following code:

Re: Gibbs or Metropolis Hastings sampling

Hello, I am also trying to determine which type of sampling is used by MLwiN (via runmlwin in Stata) in my binary response model: A Gibbs or Metropolis-Hasting sampling method or a hybrid Metropolis and Gibbs sampling method.

Per this forum, I'm attempting to save an MLwiN worksheet and have used ...
