Methods for Calculating Demand Parameters

Description

The calcSlopes methods calculate demand parameters assuming that firms are playing a differentitated product Nash-Bertrand pricing game or (as in the case of the Cournot and Stackelberg classes), a Cournot game.

getNestsParms returns a matrix containing the calibrated nesting parameters.

getParms returns a list of model-specific demand parameters. ‘digits’ specifies the number of significant digit to return (default 10).
