Re: st:how to match created matrix to the original data set

Hi Tirthankar Chakravarty ,

Thanks for your response! The way you suggested works well.

By the way, may I know if you have any suggestion where I can find
more discussion/instruction on matrix operations? Before I sent out my
question, I have searched the manual and the online post. But did not
find the answer(For example, I found "rowsof()"; but I have not yet
seen using it after J). I think I must have missed some resource on
matrix commands in Stata.

Thanks again,
Mandy
