It has both a graphical user interface (GUI) and a command-line interface. It is written in C, uses GTK+ as widget toolkit for creating its GUI, and calls gnuplot for generating graphs. The native scripting language of gretl is known as hansl (see below); it can also be used together with TRAMO/SEATS, R, Stata, Python, Octave, Ox and Julia.
RATS: robusterrors option is available in many of the regression and optimization commands (linreg, nlls, etc.). Stata: robust option applicable in many pseudo-likelihood based procedures. [19] Gretl: the option --robust to several estimation commands (such as ols) in the context of a cross-sectional dataset produces robust standard errors. [20]
In Stata, the command newey produces Newey–West standard errors for coefficients estimated by OLS regression. [13] In MATLAB, the command hac in the Econometrics toolbox produces the Newey–West estimator (among others). [14] In Python, the statsmodels [15] module includes functions for the covariance matrix using Newey–West.
The forerunner of RATS was a FORTRAN program called SPECTRE, written by economist Christopher A. Sims. [2] SPECTRE was designed to overcome some limitations of existing software that affected Sims' research in the 1970s, by providing spectral analysis and also the ability to run long unrestricted distributed lags.

There are a few reviews of free statistical software. There were two reviews in journals (but not peer reviewed), one by Zhu and Kuljaca [26] and another article by Grant that included mainly a brief review of R. [27] Zhu and Kuljaca outlined some useful characteristics of software, such as ease of use, having a number of statistical procedures and ability to develop new procedures.
In Stata, SUR can be estimated using the sureg and suest commands. [15] [16] [17] In Limdep, SUR can be estimated using the sure command [18] In Python, SUR can be estimated using the command SUR in the “linearmodels” package. [19] In gretl, SUR can be estimated using the system command.

In EViews, this test is already done after a regression, at "View" → "Residual Diagnostics" → "Serial Correlation LM Test". In Julia, the BreuschGodfreyTest function is available in the HypothesisTests package. [10] In gretl, this test can be obtained via the modtest command, or under the "Test" → "Autocorrelation" menu entry in the GUI ...
