Dear statalisters
I am making quite heavy use of -catplot-, available on SSC, recently. This
nice program by Nick Cox (Thank you, Nick, once again!) plots a
categorical variable, in frequencies or percents, on its own or against
another categorical variable.
However, this of course only works when you have variables. I would like
to do the same with the values I entered as arguments to tabi.
Example:
. tabi 15 8\ 3 47, col chi2
+-------------------+
| Key |
|-------------------|
| frequency |
| column percentage |
+-------------------+
| col
row | 1 2 | Total
-----------+----------------------+----------
1 | 15 8 | 23
| 83.33 14.55 | 31.51
-----------+----------------------+----------
2 | 3 47 | 50
| 16.67 85.45 | 68.49
-----------+----------------------+----------
Total | 18 55 | 73
| 100.00 100.00 | 100.00
Pearson chi2(1) = 29.7361 Pr = 0.000
Now I would like to have the plot output just the same as -catplot-,
something like this:
|
| 85.5
| 83.3 +
| + +
| + +
| + +
| + +
| + +
| + +
| + 16.7 +
| + + 14.6 +
| + + + +
| + + + +
| + + + +
|--------------------------------------------
row=1 row=2 row=1 row=2
col=1 col=2
The same with frequencies.
Any ideas on how to do this? I really want to avoid using excel for this.
Thanks and best regards,
Eva Poen
