This may seem like a simple question, but I am a beginner in STATA:
I have observations on individuals for various cities. I would like to
transform my data such that I generate pairs from all possible combinations
of individuals for each city. So if there are 4 individuals for a particular
city, I have 6 pairs (AB, but ruling out BA). How do I do this?
Then I would like to generate a dummy which takes the value one if the pair
satisfies a particular condition (both individuals have arrived in the city
from a particular region outside the city), zero otherwise. How can I do
this?
many thanks in advance,
Kunal
