st: RE: the values from -tabulate, summarize-

["Stoddard, Shawn" <sstoddard@tmwa.com>]

Can you please provide a sample of one of your table statements and the resulting table.

I have been able to use the table, replace command followed by a reshape wide to create stata data sets for use in graphs and other reports.

Best,
Shawn

Are they really irrecoverable, that is?

Hi all,

I am a frequent user of some code that logs a run of -tab, sum- to calculate binned means for binned scatter graphs, and reads in the log to plot in a separate Stata instance.

I see that the latter might be simply done by -scatteri- (though maybe not with the same flexibility to add lines etc.?), but we still found no fast way to calculate the binned means. Not even Mata comes close to the optimized C code of -tab, sum-, let alone -bys: egen mean()-.
But is there really no way to recover the table that -tab, sum- generated? Only logging the output and parsing the log?

Thanks,

Laszlo
