Hi guys,
I am writing my thesis on an extensive panel data. I need quarterly data for the period 2011-2018, however it is not possible to specify this from the data source. Therefore, I have about 70.000 rows that i would have to even out manually so the vectors in my panel are of equal length - I am guessing there is a smarter way.

From the data source i retrieve the name, time and price. But i only get data for the points in which changes were made. Therefore, the lengths are problematic.
- Do you guys know a way to even out the 14 data points on the left so it corresponds to the 32 points on the right? I am guessing It should be something like:
Insert rows where there is no observation and if there is not data for this point, it should take the above point. So for example for the 3rd quarter of 2012, I should insert a row and say the price was 2,14.
Best regards
Patrick
