See -h foreach- to note that you must say -in- with -anything-
**************************
sysuse auto, clear
ds
ret li
foreach v of any `r(varlist)' {
di "`: var l `v''"
}
loc r="`r(varlist)'"
di "`r'"
foreach v in `r' {
di "`: var l `v''"
}
Zitat von Keith Dear <[email protected]>:
This is a small point I am puzzled by, but in the interests of knowing
how Stata thinks:
Following -ds- (and I guess many other commands),
this works:
. foreach v of any `r(varlist)' {
(so r(varlist) is behaving like a local macro)
but this doesn't:
. foreach v of local r(varlist) {
(error message: "{ required")
what am I misunderstanding here?
