Hi everyone,
I wanted to build a table that summarizes the output of several ttest on
different variables on a single table. To do this I've written a small piece
of code, that isn't displaying the table exactly as I intended:
di "Variable`=char(9)'Mean`=char(9)'p-value"
foreach var of varlist x1-x11 {
cap ttest `var'==0
di as text "`var'`=char(9)'" as result %8.4f `r(mu_1)' "`=char(9)'" %8.4f
`r(p)'
}
The output is the following:
Variable Mean p-value
. foreach var of varlist x1-x11 {
2. cap ttest `var'==0
3. di as text "`var'`=char(9)'" as result %8.4f `r(mu_1)' "`=char(9)'"
%8.4f `r(p)'
4. }
x1 0.0926 0.1880
x2 0.0502 0.1763
x3 -0.0078 0.5102
x4 0.0114 0.5810
x5 0.0012 0.9515
x6 0.0094 0.5713
x7 -0.0199 0.1522
x8 -0.0332 0.0668
x9 -0.0255 0.1281
x10 -0.0508 0.0051
x11 0.1434 0.0529
The desired output is:
Variable Mean p-value
x1 0.0926 0.1880
x2 0.0502 0.1763
x3 -0.0078 0.5102
x4 0.0114 0.5810
x5 0.0012 0.9515
x6 0.0094 0.5713
x7 -0.0199 0.1522
x8 -0.0332 0.0668
x9 -0.0255 0.1281
x10 -0.0508 0.0051
x11 0.1434 0.0529
Is there a way for Stata not to display the foreach...
Best,
Nuno
