st: Re: generating a matrix

[Kit Baum <baum@bc.edu>]

No, you don't. You need to send your GAUSSophile friend a text file  
with three columns and 326 rows. Generate the stuff you want using  
Stata variables and use -outfile- to generate a text file of the sort  
that GAUSS will read. The same is true for interchanging data with  
any matrix language (e.g. MATLAB).

I'm not sure why a GAUSS user would want _you_ to generate a 326 x 3  
matrix with only three distinct values (as that could be done in one  
line of GAUSS code, just as Nick Cox indicated it could be done in  
Stata)...
