Shelegia-Motta-2021 0.1.0

Implements the model presented in Shelegia and Motta (2021)

This package implements the models of Shelegia and Motta (2021).

Installation

Installation over PyPI:

pip install Shelegia-Motta-2021

Or clone the repository via GitHub:

git clone https://github.com/manuelbieri/shelegia_motta_2021.git

Introduction

Since all models implement the Shelegia_Motta_2021.IModel.IModel - Interface, therefore all models provide the same functionality (public methods), even though the results may change substantially.

For all models add the following import statement:

import Shelegia_Motta_2021.Models

Models

Base Model

base_model = Shelegia_Motta_2021.Models.BaseModel()

Bargaining Power Model

bargaining_power_model = Shelegia_Motta_2021.Models.BargainingPowerModel()

Unobservable Choices Model

unobservable_model = Shelegia_Motta_2021.Models.UnobservableModel()

Acquisition Model

acquisition_model = Shelegia_Motta_2021.Models.AcquisitionModel()

Basic usage

# every model type can be plugged in without changing the following code.
model: Shelegia_Motta_2021.IModel.IModel = Shelegia_Motta_2021.Models.BaseModel()

# print string representation of the model
print(model)

# plot the best answers of the incumbent to the choice of the entrant
model.plot_incumbent_best_answers()

# plot the equilibrium path
model.plot_equilibrium()
