Stata 8 on Win98, freshly updated.
The following command was generated by using the overlaid twoway graph dialogue
box, using the sysuse auto data. It yielded an error message: "parentheses do
not balance"
I count 21 parentheses in each direction, ie 21 pairs.
Am I missing something?
And how could a command generated by a dialogue box (that is, by Stata itself)
have an error in the parentheses? I didn't type them in. Must mean there is
something wrong with the way the dialogue box works?
Thanks.
twoway (scatter mpg weight if foreign==0, msymbol(square) msize(medsmall)
mcolor("255 0 0") mlabel(rep78)) (scatter mpg weight if foreign==1, msymbol(x)
