EXAMPLETHREE.RPF is the example from Section 1.4 in the Introduction. This generates several series from the original data on the data file (including some which require lags), then runs two linear regressions (with LINREG). It also uses the TABLE and STATISTICS instructions to show basic statistics on the full set of series (with TABLE) and a larger set of statistics (with STATISTICS).
