#79: Some Dynare++ tests fail
-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
Reporter: sebastien | Owner:
Type: bug | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone:
Component: Dynare++ | Version: 4.1.0
Keywords: |
-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
Some unit tests of Dynare++ fail:
* in the integ library
* in the kord library
Moreover, the kord tests take a VERY long time.
We need to check with Ondra how to fix these tests.

#135: Improve display of decision rules with EXPECTATION operator
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
Reporter: sebastien | Owner: sebastien
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone: 4.3
Component: Preprocessor | Version:
Keywords: |
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
Currently, if the user inputs EXPECTATION(-1)(some_expr) in her model,
then a new aux variable is created, and this var is a state var, which
appears in the decision rules as EXPECTATION(-1)(...) (with the dots
instead of the expression). This is not very informative. Displaying the
full expression would require to add a new writeOutput method in the
preprocessor.
And for something like EXPECTATION(-2)(some_expr), it is even worse,
because there are 2 aux vars: one for the operator, and the second one
which appears when removing lags of 2. It is the latter which appears in
stoch_simul. Fixing this requires to fix the orig_endo field of
M_.aux_vars in that case.

The idea is to give an user-friendly way to perform simulations of a model
using custom series of shocks; this is a recurring request.

This function is basically useless now that unit_root_vars has been
removed.
It is however still called from several places.

#255: Check for consistent use of dataset_.descriptive.mean vs.
bayestopt_.mean_varobs in smoother and estimation

Currently, both structures are still present. prior_posterior_statistics.m
sets
bayestopt_.mean_varobs = dataset.descriptive.mean';
to have both. Thus, use should be made consistent and storage be confined
to one structure. As the mean of the data belongs to the dataset and not
the estimation, the dataset_ structure is better suited than bayestopt_.

taking large matrix power in forecast step of the Kalman smoother routines
is expensive, but probably more accurate than recursive multiplications.
- investigate more accuracy issue
- factorise matrix decomposition for matrix power

#83: persistent variables must be cleared at the beginning of a Dynare run

persistent variables in *.m files trigger hard to understand errors if the
user run successively two different *.mod files with 'noclearall' option.
Whenever a function uses persistent variables, there should be an explicit
initialize option and not rely on empty persistent variables as, for
example, priordens.m currently does.
