Re: st: generating houshold size

[orozco@toulouse.inra.fr]

Leonie,

what about a loop over the household members variables?
Suppose each member household have information through variable varMember`i'
(and if for one household this variable is missing, this means there is no
member number i)

gen HouseholdSize = 0 /*Size of household*/

/*NbMemberMax is the max nb of members in your data*/
forv i = 1/NbMemberMax {
	replace HouseholdSize = HouseholdSize + 1 if varMember`i'!=.
}
