\title{Augmented-Dickey-Fuller Unit Root Test}
\description{
Performs the augmented Dickey-Fuller unit root test.
}
\usage{
ur.df(y, type = c("none", "drift", "trend"), lags = 1,
selectlags = c("Fixed", "AIC", "BIC"))
}
\arguments{
\item{y}{Vector to be tested for a unit root.}
\item{type}{Test type, either \code{"none"}, \code{"drift"} or
\code{"trend"}.}
\item{lags}{Number of lags for endogenous variable to be included.}
\item{selectlags}{Lag selection can be achieved according to the
Akaike \code{"AIC"} or the Bayes \code{"BIC"} information
criteria. The maximum number of lags considered is set by
\code{lags}. The default is to use a \code{"fixed"} lag length set
by \code{lags}.}
}
\details{
The function \code{ur.df()} computes the augmented Dickey-Fuller
test. If type is set to \code{"none"} neither an intercept nor a trend
is included in the test regression. If it is set to \code{"drift"} an
intercept is added and if it is set to \code{"trend"} both an intercept
and a trend is added. The critical values are taken from Hamilton
(1994) and Dickey and Fuller(1981).
}
\value{
An object of class \code{ur.df}.
