<h3 class="section">4.4 Parameter initialization</h3>
<p>When using Dynare for computing simulations, it is necessary to
calibrate the parameters of the model. This is done through parameter
initialization.
</p>
<p>The syntax is the following:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example"><var>PARAMETER_NAME</var> = <var>EXPRESSION</var>;
</pre></div>
<p>Here is an example of calibration:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">parameters alpha, bet;
beta = 0.99;
alpha = 0.36;
A = 1-alpha*beta;
</pre></div>
<p>Internally, the parameter values are stored in <code>M_.params</code>:
</p>
<dl>
<dt><a name="index-M_005f_002eparams"></a>MATLAB/Octave variable: <strong>M_.params</strong></dt>
<dd>
<p>Contains the values of model parameters. The parameters are in the
order that was used in the <code>parameters</code> command.
</p>
</dd></dl>
