Dear listers,
please test the following code:
clear
set obs 1000
gen x = uniform()
egen pc = pc(x)
sum
Variable | Obs Mean Std. Dev. Min Max
-------------+--------------------------------------------------------
x | 1000 .5019275 .291899 .0007097 .9980542
pc | 1000 .1 .0581556 .0001414 .1988443
the above code generate a variable "pc", which is distributed between 0 and
.20, i do not know why? as the help file told me that the new variable
should be between 0 and 100.
Can you tell me the reason? is it a bug of stata?
thanks
Levy
