I am looking for a way to save -tabulate- output as a matrix, with
row names and preferably without the "Total" row. This would be
similar to the way -tabstatmat- converts -tabstat- output to a
matrix. With the matcell, matcol and matrow options some of the
-tabulate- results can be saved but I don't know how to save the
value labels and the percent values. The following example makes
clear what exactly I would like to do.
. sysuse auto
. tab foreign
Car type | Freq. Percent Cum.
---------+-----------------------------------
Domestic | 52 70.27 70.27
Foreign | 22 29.73 100.00
---------+-----------------------------------
Total | 74 100.00
I would like to create a matrix that looks like this:
tab[2,2]
freq percent
Domestic 52 70.27
Foreign 22 29.73
This appears to be a simple problem but I could not find a solution
in the manuals, with -findit- or in the Statalist archives.
