Dear R-users, I want to estimate ARCH test for multiple columns (i.e., from 2:21 COLUMNS ) in my data. For this purpose, I want to run a loop to calculate ARCH test results for each column in the data frame. I tried by using for loop and lapply function, but unable to write a loop for computing the ARCH test simultaneously for each column (i.e., from 2:21 columns) of my data frame.
Below is my ARCH test code which I want to estimate for multiple columns of the data frame in a loop. library(tseries) library(FinTS) ArchTest (A, lags=1, demean = FALSE) Hence, A is a vector for which the ARCH test result is calculated. Here, I want to write a loop so that the ArchTest can be calculated simultaneously for each column of my data frame. From ARCH test result, I require only the calculated Chi-square value and its p-value for each column that stored in another matrix or object for each column as an output file. For your convenience, I attached my sample data below. Please find it. Please help me for which I shall be always grateful to you. Thank you. -- *Best Regards,* *Subhamitra Patra* *Phd.
