BTW, my solution is a bit more complicated than initially imagined

icodes
la def mylab 0 "<150" 1 "150-160" 2 "160-170" 3 "170-180" 4 ">180"
la val mygroups mylab
table mygroups, contents(freq min weight max weight) mis

Betreff: st: Categorize variable
I have a continuous variabile called weight. How can I categorize this
variable into groups: <=150lb (150-160], (150-160], (170-180] and >180?
thank you
