该书附带的PDF手册现在作为zip文件的一部分可免费下载。手册描述了如何使用CATS 2.0来重现教科书中的结果。这个zip文件包括示例程序和数据文件，以及步骤描述和讨论结果。
What's Included?
The CATS 2.0 package includes the CATS procedure on CD and a completely revised 200-page manual describing the econometrics of the cointegrated VAR model and how to interpret the output. All features of the program are illustrated by a worked example. The manual also includes a technical appendix describing the mathematics of CATS. Sample data and set-up files for the illustrative examples are also included.
CATS提供了各种各样的工具来分析数据、选择和检验协整模型。该程序几乎完全由菜单和对话框驱动。首先运行一个RATS程序来定义数据并加载CATS进程。
协整VAR模型及其手册
CATS 2.0是与Katarina Juselius合著的《Cointegrated VAR Model》一书一起开发的。虽然这本书肯定不要求使用CATS，但我们认为任何对协整分析感兴趣的人，特别是任何使用CATS进行协整分析的人，都会发现它非常有用。
这会将多个CATS菜单添加到RATS中，您可以通过从这些菜单中选择操作来执行分析。CATS会提示您输入任何需要的信息。
CATS provides a wide variety of tools for analyzing your data and choosing and testing a cointegration model. The program is almost completely menu- and dialog-driven. You begin by running a short RATS program to define your data and load the CATS procedure. This adds several CATS menus to the RATS menu bar, and you perform your analysis by selecting operations from these menus. CATS will prompt you for any needed input. See CATS 2: A Closer Look for screen shots showing some of the menu operations.
