Hi everybody. I'm just beggining in Stata.
Can I have the same result if use "egen peso=sum(pesoan)" or "egen
peso=total(pesoan)"
Why "gen peso=sum(pesoan)" has a different result?
They are the same:
*! version 4.0.0 04oct2004
program define _gsum
// -egen- function -sum()- renamed to -total()- for Stata 9
// no -version #- statement
_gtotal `0'
end
To see this,
which _gsum
viewsource _gsum.ado
Thanks!
I going to try it.
