Perhaps recode will do the job:
. sysuse auto, clear
(1978 Automobile Data)
. recode price (0/5000=1 "Cheap") (5001/10000=2 "Not cheap") (10000/.
=3 "Expensive")
> , generate(priceclass)
(74 differences between price and priceclass)
. tab priceclass
RECODE of |
price |
(Price) | Freq. Percent Cum.
------------+-----------------------------------
Cheap | 37 50.00 50.00
Not cheap | 27 36.49 86.49
Expensive | 10 13.51 100.00
------------+-----------------------------------
Total | 74 100.00
