Suppose I wanna create some routine econ variables: using FredData; const f = Fred("Personal api_key"); # d = get_data(f, "GDP"); y=d.df[:,4] d = get_data(f, "PCEC"); c=d.df[:,4] d = get_data(f, "GPDI"); i=d.df[:,4] d = get_data(f, "GCE"); g=d.df[:,4] d = get_data(f, "NETEXP"); nx=…

It’s better to use dictionaries in this case dict = Dict{Symbol, Any}() vars = Dict{String, Symbol}("GDP" => :y, "PCEC" => :c, "GPDI" => :i, "GCE" => :g, …
