Graph CUSUM and CUSUM squared
-----------------------------

        ^cusum6^ varlist [^, noc^onstant ^d^ate(varname) ^nop^lot  other-option
> s]

Description
-----------

^cusum6^ calculates and graphs the cumulative sums (CUSUM) of the recursive
residuals and their squares from the regression specified by "varlist".  Each
graph includes a 95 percent confidence band.

^cusum6^ is for use with time series data.

Options
-------

^noc^onstant eliminates the constant from the regressions.

^nop^lot suppresses the graphs.


Other options
-------------

The CUSUM statistics and the confidence bands can be stored for later use.
The options for storing these variables are

    CUSUM information
    -----------------

    ^rr^(varname) stores the recursive residuals.
    
    ^c^s(varname) stores the CUSUM.

    ^l^w(varname) stores the lower limit of the confidence band.

    ^u^w(varname) stores the upper limit of the confidence bankd.


    CUSUM of squares information
    ----------------------------

    ^c^s2(varname) stores the CUSUM of squares.

    ^lww^(varname) stores the lower limit of the confidence band.

    ^s^qline(varname) stores the reference line.

    ^uww^(varname) stores the upper limit of the confidence band.
