Mathematica Supplements

Packages

The functions in this paper are implemented in the Mathematica package FitARMA.  This package requires also the package FitAR.  Both of these packages require Mathematica Version 5.2 or above.  To install these packages simply copy them to your Applications directory where Mathematica is installed -- for example on many computers this is:

C:\Program Files\Wolfram Research\Mathematica\5.2\AddOns\Applications

Download these Mathematica Package files:  FitARMA.m and FitAR.m
