diff_diff.clear_cache

diff_diff.clear_cache()

Clear the local dataset cache.

Also removes any .<name>.<ext>.<suffix> scratch files left behind by an atomic cache write that was interrupted between creating the temporary file and replacing the cache entry (a hard kill, for instance). Those are hidden and do not match the plain *.csv / *.dta patterns, so without this they would accumulate and survive the documented remedy.

Return type:

None
