Replication of tables and figures from "Mostly Harmless Econometrics" in Stata, R, Python and Julia.

Mostly Harmless Replication

Synopsis

A bold attempt to replicate the tables and figures from the book Mostly Harmless Econometrics in the following languages:

  • Stata
  • R
  • Python
  • Julia

Why undertake this madness? My primary motivation was to see if I could replace Stata with either R, Python, or Julia in my workflow, so I tried to replicate Mostly Harmless Econometrics in each of these languages.
