Try this:
stack control case, into(control_case)
rename _stack status
replace status = status - 1

Subject: selecting random samples and run a simulation
I would like to draw a random sample of 500 controls and 500 cases and calculate the odds ratio; repeat the process for 1000 times.
Example: (draw random sample)
matrix means=(0, 1.4)
matrix stdev = (1, 1)
draw norm control case, n(500) m (means) sds(stdev)
the outcome for the first 5 observations will look like this:
control case
-1.315189 .1754738
-.6195259 -.4363556
-1.18018 .2124426
-.2960889 -.5825416
..4534519 -.1245893
PROBLEM: I would like the outcomes for controls and cases to be in one column and create a new variable called "status" which is 0
for control and 1 for case.
Control_case status
-1.315189 0
-.6195259 0
-1.18018 0
-.2960889 0
..4534519 0
..1754738 1
-.4363556 1
..2124426 1
-.5825416 1
-.1245893 1
I have to run the logistic regression to calculate the odds ratios; and repeat the process with different variances.
I would like to know how to make the outcomes arranged in one column with the creation of the variables "control_case" and "status".
Thank you for any suggestion.
