Fixed Effects Q2 #74

sfe2 = sfe.fit() sfe2

I've copied the format of your code from the Fixed Effects Rosetta Stone notebook, but the code above, which I've written for Q2, is giving me this error:

IndexError: index 556 is out of bounds for axis 1 with size 556

Any hint as to why this is the case? Thanks so much!

Would it perhaps have to do with missing data?

Hi Annabella,

I'm not sure what the error is here, but I would recommend using the linearmodels package. I give the example of using either statsmodels or linearmodels in my Rosetta stone notebook. But I think the linearmodels package is easier to use.

Check out the documentation here: https://bashtage.github.io/linearmodels/doc/panel/models.html#linearmodels.panel.model.PanelOLS
