Title: Analysis with the Constant Elasticity of Substitution (CES)
Description: Tools for economic analysis and economic modelling
with a Constant Elasticity of Substitution (CES) function

Imports: systemfit (>= 1.0-0), micEcon (>= 0.6-1), miscTools (>= 0.6-1)
Description: Tools for econometric analysis and economic modelling
with the traditional two-input Constant Elasticity of Substitution (CES) function
and with nested CES functions with three and four inputs.
The econometric estimation can be done by the Kmenta approximation,
using various gradient-based or global optimisation algorithms.
Some of these algorithms can constrain the parameters to certain ranges,
Furthermore, the non-linear least-squares estimation
can be combined with a grid-search for the rho-parameter(s).
