Hello,
I'm wondering if anybody knows the Stata command that is equivalent
to the following SPSS command:
compute newvar= sum(var1, var2).
exe.
The SUM function in SPSS allows you to keep cases with missing
values instaead of droppoing them. It's one way of preventing
listwise deletion. It would be great if I can get help with this.
Sincerely,
Satomi
egen newvar = rowtotal(var1 var2)
