Re: st: how to assign an indicator variable to all observation within a group if a condition is satisfied at least twice

[Nick Cox <njcoxstata@gmail.com>]

These conditions aren't mutually exclusive. Anyone with 80, 200, 300
qualifies on both counts: earnings <= 100 once and earnings >= 100
twice.

Also, watch for = on both sides of inequality.

Either way, posts earlier today explained the techniques of getting an
indicator and summing it over blocks of observations.
