All,
I'm not sure what to make of the following:
sysuse auto
count if 10<mpg<20
A SAS-using colleague of mine typed this into Stata. Much to her astonishment, it returned a valid yet incorrect answer. Much to my astonishment, it did not return an error.
What is Stata doing here? Is this behavior documented anywhere?
