I think there is a bug in -xtile-. I ran the code below, and I still got deciles, but they are incomplete. I would expect missing values because there are not enough observations. I use Stata 12. sysuse auto,clear keep in 1/10 xtile decile=price if price<5000, nq(10) * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?search * http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/resources/statalist-faq/ * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/
