The following is a copy and paste of what I get from my Stata when I run
program makez.,ie I get error 198 saying " option gweight not allowed"
. prog makez, rclass
1. syntax [, obs(integer 31)]
2. clear
3. set obs `obs'
4. gen a = invnorm(uniform())
5. ttest a=0
6. return scalar t=r(t)
7. end
. simul, reps(100000) seed(123): makez
option gweight not allowed
r(198);
I will try the -postfile- option.Thank you ,
Victor M. Zammit
