Dear all,
I do not understant why this does not work as I
expected.
. encode gender,gen(sex)
. graph twoway (lfit lhomo sex if case==0, sort),
xlabel(1 2,valuelabel)
I expect the s=xaxis to be label "M" and "F" instead
is 1 and 2.
I know that I can use -label define- instead, but I
think this should work because a valuelabel is
created:
. tab sex
gender | Freq. Percent Cum.
------------+-----------------------------------
F | 254 47.21 47.21
M | 284 52.79 100.00
------------+-----------------------------------
Total | 538 100.00
. tab sex, nol
gender | Freq. Percent Cum.
------------+-----------------------------------
1 | 254 47.21 47.21
2 | 284 52.79 100.00
------------+-----------------------------------
Total | 538 100.00
. des sex
storage display value
variable name type format label variable
label
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
sex long %8.0g sex gender
What am I doing wrong.
Thank you,
Ricardo.
