%function [ny, nx, posterior, prior, forecast_data] = bvar_toolbox(nlags)
% bvar_toolbox  Routines shared between BVAR methods
% Computes several things for the estimations of a BVAR(nlags)
%
% INPUTS:
%     nlags: number of lags
%
% OUTPUTS:
%    ny:            number of endogenous variables
%    nx:            number of exogenous variables (equal to zero, or one if a
%                   constant term is included)
%    posterior:     a structure describing the posterior distribution (which is
%                   normal-Inverse-Wishart)
%                   Its fields are:
%                   - df: degrees of freedom of the inverse-Wishart distribution
%                   - S: matrix parameter for the inverse-Wishart distribution
%                   - XXi: first component of the VCV of the matrix-normal
%                     distribution (the other one being drawn from the
%                     inverse-Wishart)
%                   - PhiHat: mean of the matrix-normal distribution
%    prior:         a structure describing the prior distribution
%                   Its fields are the same than for the posterior
%    forecast_data: a structure containing data useful for forecasting
%                   Its fields are:
%                   - initval: a nlags*ny matrix containing the "nlags" last
%                     observations of the sample (i.e. before options_.nobs)
%                   - xdata: a matrix containing the future exogenous for
%                     forecasting, of size options_.forecast*nx (actually only
%                     contains "1" values for the constant term if nx ~= 0)
%                   - realized_val: only non-empty if options_.nobs doesn't point
%                     to the end of sample
%                     In that case, contains values of endogenous variables after
%                     options_.nobs and up to the end of the sample
%                   - realized_xdata: contains values of exogenous variables after
%                     options_.nobs and up to the end of the sample (actually only
%                     contains "1" values for the constant term if nx ~= 0)

% mnprior.tight:Overall tightness of Minnesota prior
% mnprior.decay:Standard deviations of lags shrink as lag^(-decay)
% vprior.sig:   Vector of prior modes for diagonal elements of r.f. covariance matrix
% vprior.w:     Weight on prior on vcv.  1 corresponds to "one dummy observation" weight
%                   Should be an integer, and will be rounded if not.  vprior.sig is needed
%                   to scale the Minnesota prior, even if the prior on sigma is not used itself.
%                   Set vprior.w=0 to achieve this.
% Note:         The original Minnesota prior treats own lags asymmetrically, and therefore
%                   cannot be implemented entirely with dummy observations.  It is also usually
%                   taken to include the sum-of-coefficients and co-persistence components
%                   that are implemented directly in rfvar3.m.  The diagonal prior on v, combined
%                   with sum-of-coefficients and co-persistence components and with the unit own-first-lag
%                   prior mean generates larger prior variances for own than for cross-effects even in
%                   this formulation, but here there is no way to shrink toward a set of unconstrained
%                   univariate AR's.

function var=rfvar3(ydata,lags,xdata,breaks,lambda,mu)
%function var=rfvar3(ydata,lags,xdata,breaks,lambda,mu)
% This algorithm goes for accuracy without worrying about memory requirements.
% ydata:   dependent variable data matrix
% xdata:   exogenous variable data matrix
% lags:    number of lags
% breaks:  rows in ydata and xdata after which there is a break.  This allows for
%          discontinuities in the data (e.g. war years) and for the possibility of
%          adding dummy observations to implement a prior.  This must be a column vector.
%          Note that a single dummy observation becomes lags+1 rows of the data matrix,
%          with a break separating it from the rest of the data.  The function treats the
%          first lags observations at the top and after each "break" in ydata and xdata as
%          initial conditions.
% lambda:  weight on "co-persistence" prior dummy observations.  This expresses
%          belief that when data on *all* y's are stable at their initial levels, they will
%          tend to persist at that level.  lambda=5 is a reasonable first try.  With lambda<0,
%          constant term is not included in the dummy observation, so that stationary models
%          with means equal to initial ybar do not fit the prior mean.  With lambda>0, the prior
%          implies that large constants are unlikely if unit roots are present.
% mu:      weight on "own persistence" prior dummy observation.  Expresses belief
%          that when y_i has been stable at its initial level, it will tend to persist
%          at that level, regardless of the values of other variables.  There is
%          one of these for each variable.  A reasonable first guess is mu=2.
%      The program assumes that the first lags rows of ydata and xdata are real data, not dummies.
%      Dummy observations should go at the end, if any.  If pre-sample x's are not available,
%      repeating the initial xdata(lags+1,:) row or copying xdata(lags+1:2*lags,:) into
%      xdata(1:lags,:) are reasonable subsititutes.  These values are used in forming the
%      persistence priors.
