% OPTBANDW: Newey and Wests's Method of optimum Bandwidth Selection. 
%
% SYNTAX: bandwidth = optbandw(moments, kernel_type)
% 
% INPUTS
% moments     : A Txq matrix with the value of the moment conditions 
%               (q moment conditions with T observations each).
%
% kernel_type : The type of kernel, used by the HAC estimates. Set to:
%               'Bartlett', if the Bartlett kernel is used
%               'Parzen', if the Parzen kernel is used
%               #### If a "method" is not supplied by the user, the default is 'Bartlett'.
%
% OUTPUT
% bandwidth   : An integer scalar that denotes the optimum bandwidth.
