Hi,
I am running the following simple loop which i need some help with:
forvalues i =1/15
forvalues j=1/15{
gen mindiff`i'_`j' = mindiff``i' - mindiff`j'
}
}
}
The problem is that not all combinations of i and j exist , so for example mindiff1_2 may not exist. Everytime the loop goes over such a variable, the loop terminates and thus stops running the loop over all consecutive variables which may exist. How do i stop the loop from terminating?
Thank you in advance for any help.
Akshay
