This is probably a trivial matter, but I can't figure it out.
(Stata 8.)
After a command such as -regress-, you get matrices returned in e(), such
as e(b).
I would like to refer to a particular element of e(b), but I can't seem to
do it directly. I can refer to the whole of e(b), but not to e(b)[1,4] or
el(e(b),1,4).
The only way I seem to be able to do it is to copy the whole matrix:
mat M = e(b)
Then I can refer to M[1,4] or el(M,1,4).
Is that the only way to do it?
Thanks to anyone who can help.
