SolvingMicroDSOPs SCF data construction will fail with new approach to data #59

Closed llorracc closed 4 years ago

llorracc commented 4 years ago

I was just looking through SolvingMicroDSOPs and noticed that there is a file

./Calibration/SetupSCFData.py

which certainly will not work with the new way of doing things. Looks like it should be an easy fix for @MridulS

Relatedly, in principle the SCF data file that we have put in the datasets storage should be replicable from the raw SCF data using the relevant code in cstwMPC:

Code/Stata/SCF

but in fact there does not seem to be any clear mapping between the code in that directory and the SCFwealthDataReduced.txt file. This is not worth the effort to fix; I'm writing this more to record for posterity the fact that I've looked and been unable to find any code that creates it.
