st: AW: how do I get a stata matrix into mata?

["Martin Weiss" <martin.weiss1@gmx.de>]

Alternatively, construct the vector in -mata- in the first place:


*************
mata: mata clear

sysuse auto, clear

gen constant=1
capt ssc inst tomata
di in red _rc

tomata price constant weight trunk

mata
	X=(weight, trunk, constant)
	y=price
	b=invsym(X'*X)*X'*y
	b
	//for comparison:
	mata stata reg price weight trunk
end
*************

I can only make the other way work (from mata to stata) - what if I want to
"send" a stata vector containing e(b) to mata?

Thanks!
