No idea why you would want to do it, but it's easy with -forval-
clear
set obs `=26*35'
g x=.
g a=.
g i=.
local n=1
forv i=1/26 {
forv a=1/35 {
qui replace x=`i'`a' in `n'
qui replace i=`i' in `n'
qui replace a=`a' in `n'
local n=`n'+1

I am entering in some data manually and I would like to be able to
quickly insert unique numeric identifiers which represent 26 individual
subjects each with 35 attributes.
The values for the individual identifiers look like this:
subject 1 with 1-35 attributes =
11,12,13,14,....110,111,112...120,121,122...130,131,132,133,134,135
subject 2 with 1-35 attributes =
21,22,23,24,....210,211,212...220,221,222...230,231,232,233,234,235
subject 3 with 1-35 attributes =
31,32,33,34.....310,311,312...320,321,322...330,331,332,333,334,335
etc. to subject 26 w/ 1-35 attributes...261,262,263
These values will be manually inputted in one column under varname (obs)
in ascending order of subject number(s) and attribute number(s).
obs
11
12
13
14
.etc
.etc
110
111
112
.etc
.etc
.etc
21
22
23
24
25
.etc
.etc
.etc
I'm wondering if there is Stata listmember that could generate these
values via Stata coding and would be willing to share that information.
Thank you!
Suzy
