Dear List friends,
I come across one problem. Hope you can help me out.
There are one set of variables n1 n6 n11..., with step 5. The content
of these variables are codes of different crops, with 1$$ and 1 coded
as wheat (1$$ are the sub-categories of wheat). Now I have to recode
all the 1$$ to 1 , because it is inconsistent with the coding system
of other tables, which do NOT use the sub-categories. Call you
attention: crops which are coded as 1$ are totally different crops and
I should no recode them.
In what follows, I present the way I did and the error information.
version 8.2
forvalue i=1(5)41 {
recode n233`i' (1$$=1 wheat) ///
(2$$=2 maize) (missing=.), gen(sw)
}
unknown el 1$$ in rule
r(198);
The sampling data:
