I have a problem with the syntaxe global
When I type
global demographe "one NE SOUTH MIDWEST sex_c age_c kids05
kids610 kids1115 voiture maison" ;
then
global D wordcount($demographe) ;
I expect that stata returns the number 11
but I get the folowing message when I type
dis $D
oneNESOUTHMIDWESTsex_cage_ckids05kids610kids1115voituremaison
invalid name
----------------------------------------------------------
Abdelrahmen,
It is:
global D wordcount("$demographe")
