hello all,
I am baffled by something I just encountered. Then again, i haven't
been using Stata for 2 months, so its possible I am just still
thinking in another language.
I am writing what amounts to a simulation in stata, mostly using only
globals and macros. When I try to multiply two macros, I get a
"invalid name" error.
The relevant code is:
global mua=-1
local na=1
local mpa=`mua' *`na'
Sorry if this is obvious. I did search help/archives.
TIA.
Dan
