I am hoping to create a graph which is an X by Y matrix. Each cell is
shaded according to the percentage of observations in that cell (in some
sense this is a table in graphical form). Does anyone have any ideas how to
approach this in stata? Maybe an example will help:
X is industries, Y is occupations: the graph would look like this where
letters represent shadings based on the % in each cell
1 2 3 4
---------------------------------
1 | lllll | lllll | mmm | mmm |
---------------------------------
2 | dddd | ddd | lllll | mmm |
---------------------------------
3 | llllll | mmm | llll | ddd |
---------------------------------
4 | dddd | mmm | dddd | llllll |

Or is the easier to do in excel?
