st: large numbers in comb(n,k) function: no success
Dear Statalisters,
I would like to implement a comb(n,k) function. But my Stata does not
allow it because of large n, k-numbers. N=180000 and k=2000. Is there
any other way to do it? I wasn't successful by using exp(lnfactorial(n))
in mata as well.
Thank you.
