Hello,
I would like to create a completely new dataset from scratch with just
one variable. I would like the variable (age) to have 80 observations,
increasing sequentially.
Example:
age
1
2
3
4
..
80
I have tried a few different things, eg
clear
gen age=_n
or ...
clear
gen age=1
replace age=_n
keep if age<=80
but nothing happens....
Does anyone know how to do this. I have tried searching for
information but it is one of those things which is hard to search for.
Obviously I open the data editor and input the values by manually but
I would prefer to have something reproducible.
Thanks!
Anna
