The Mata functions -select()- and -length()- are closest in spirit. For example:
*********************************
sysuse auto, clear
mata
st_view(X=.,., ("price", "mpg", "weight", "length"))
Y = select(X, X[., 1]:>mean(X[.,1]))
length(Y)
end
*********************************
keeps the rows of the data matrix for which the price of the car is
greater than the mean.

To every ω-consistent recursive class κ of formulae there correspond
recursive class signs r, such that neither v Gen r nor Neg(v Gen r)
belongs to Flg(κ) (where v is the free variable of r).
