function forecasts=run(M_,options_,oo_,bayestopt_,estim_params_,constrained_paths, constrained_vars, options_cond_fcst)
% run(constrained_paths, constrained_vars, options_cond_fcst)
% Computes conditional forecasts.
%
% INPUTS
% M_ [structure] describing the model
% options_ [structure] describing the options
% oo_: [structure] storing the results
% bayestopt_ [structure] describing the priors
% estim_params_ [structure] characterizing parameters to be estimated
% - constrained_paths [double] m*p array, where m is the number of constrained endogenous variables and p is the number of constrained periods.
% - constrained_vars [integer] m*1 array, indices in M_.endo_names of the constrained variables.
% - options_cond_fcst [structure] containing the options. The fields are:
%
% + replic [integer] scalar, number of monte carlo simulations.
% + parameter_set [char] values of the estimated parameters:
% 'posterior_mode',
% 'posterior_mean',
% 'posterior_median',
% 'prior_mode' or
% 'prior mean'.
% [double] np*1 array, values of the estimated parameters.
% + controlled_varexo [cell] m*1 cell of row char array, list of controlled exogenous variables.
% + conf_sig [double] scalar in [0,1], probability mass covered by the confidence bands.
%
% OUTPUTS
% - forecasts [structure] results of the conditional forecast exercise
%
% SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS
% This routine has to be called after an estimation statement or an estimated_params block.
%
% REMARKS
% [1] Results are stored in oo_.conditional_forecast.
% [2] Use the function conditional_forecasts.plot to plot the results.
