EXAMPLE
x = reshape([1:35],'1978q1') // ceate a quarterly ts y = q2m(x) // gives an montly ts, from 1978m1 to 2012m12 with values 1 for all months of the first quarter of year 1978, // 2 for all months of the second quarter of year 1979... |  |  |
expand a quarterly series into a monthly one
tsout=q2m(tsin)
*s tsin = a quarterly time series
* tsout = the corresponding monthly time series
x = reshape([1:35],'1978q1') // ceate a quarterly ts y = q2m(x) // gives an montly ts, from 1978m1 to 2012m12 with values 1 for all months of the first quarter of year 1978, // 2 for all months of the second quarter of year 1979... | | |
