Hi,
I need to run a cross-sectional regression on several dummy variables (there are only dummy variables in my regression). I know that we can use the '\' to solve the for the 'b' in the following equation A*b=c --> b=A\c where 'b' represents the betas from my regression. however the betas produced from this result are all 'NaN'. Is the a particular reason for this? Can I use the '\' function to solve for this particular problem or must I use a different built in function.
Thanks!

If you have the Statistics Toolbox, you can use the regress() function.
