Subject: st: RE: Scatter Plot Descriptives
Issue your statistics commands before
the graph and then use -graph- to display results.
Example:
. sysuse auto, clear
(1978 Automobile Data)
. corr turn length
(obs=74)
| turn length
-------------+------------------
turn | 1.0000
length | 0.8643 1.0000
. scatter turn length, subtitle("r = `: di %5.3f r(rho)'")
-correlate- leaves r(rho) in memory. Here I add
a small flourish to supply a format on the fly.
-help macro- and -help extended_fcn- supply more
details. Note carefully the single left ` and right '
quotes.
