assess_skewness.RdThis function tests the skewness for the residuals of the endogenous variables in the specified VAR model. This function uses an implementation equivalent to STATA's sktest. Of the p-levels resulting from assessing the significance of the skewness for the residuals of that variable, the minimum is returned.
