Programming computers to perform newly published economic techniques is becoming more and more common for econometricians and economists. The traditional `black box' statistical packages simply do not keep up with the most recent advances in the econometrics and statistics literature, nor do they oe

A direct solution is proposed to an optimal control problem of linear econometric systems with a quadratic welfare loss function when there are linear equality constraints on the control variables. The direct solution proposed here eliminates the problem of non-uniqueness of the optimal solution, wh
