Dear Statalisters, I'd like to calculate a scalar "Welfare" for rural and urban using a nested loop. Let's urb has value 1 for "urban" and 2 for "rural". I tried to use this code but it seems that scalar may not be combined with by. Can someone help me? Regards, Christian ****************** forvalues i = 1/9 { forvalues j = 1/9 { bysort urb : scalar welfare = w`i'bar*(lnp`i'bar*1.1) + 0.5*w`i'bar*_b[e`i'`j'c]*(lnp`i'bar*1.1)*(lnp`j'bar*1.1) } } * di welfare ***************** -- View this message in context: http://statalist.1588530.n2.nabble.com/Forvalue-and-bysort-tp5808622p5808622.html Sent from the Statalist mailing list archive at Nabble.com. * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?search * http://www.stata.com/support/statalist/faq * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/
