encode (see [d] encode) has long been one of Stata's basic data-management commands, encode maps the distinct strings of a string variable to an integer-valued numeric variable for which the strings become value labels. Unless you specify a preexisting set of value labels through its label...

Dear Stata list users, I am trying to produce a graph that is essentially a forest plot using a combination of a scatter plot and a twoway rcap plot. I have gone down this route as I have found the metagraph and eclplots are not exactly what I need. I have estimates with very diff...
I'm using Stata 11.2. Here is my code: foreach var of varlist IntegrT_Stage_Algo Nodes_Positive IntegrTNM_Stage_Algo_No_assumpti InvStatus { encode `var', gen(v2`var') } this is my error message: option gen() incorrectly specified r(198); I guess what I would also like once I...
(table shows unique values only,sorted alphabetically, like Stata doesit) Var1 Var2 Var3 A B A B C B C After encoding Var1 will be coded as 1=A, 2=B, 3=C; Var2: 1=B, 2=C; Var3: 1=A,2=B, which is in all probability not what moleps islon ...
