Instructions for running matching code

Inputs and Outputs

  • Input: tab delimited file "E:/McNair/Projects/LBO/Clean/STATApredictLBOclean.txt"
    • This contains list of LBO and nonLBO firms from compustat 1970-2015, propensity scores, patent data, and other variables generated from stata code "statadatasetup4.do" and "statapredictLBOclean.do"
  • Output: tab delimited file "E:/McNair/Projects/LBO/New matching/matchresults.txt"
    • This is the input file, except with an additional column "matchpair" indicating matched pairs:
    • Positive integers identify pairs matched, negative integers identify matched non-LBOs in years other than the match, -0.1 identifies LBOs that failed to match under constraints provided

Running Code

  • Open Julia command line in administrator mode
  • Change directory to E:\McNair\Projects\LBO\New matching\
  • Run script LBOmatchscript.jl
