Description

The !transition_shocks keyword starts a new declaration block for transition shocks (i.e. shocks to transition equation); the names of the shocks must be separated by commas, semi-colons, or line breaks. You can have as many declaration blocks as you wish in any order in your model file: They all get combined together when you read the model file in. Each shock must be declared (exactly once).

You can add descriptors to the shocks (enclosed in single or double quotes, preceding the name of the shock); these will be stored in, and accessible from, the model object.

Example

!transition_shocks
    e1, 'Aggregate supply shock' e2
