Introduction to Stata

Stata tutorial 1: Introduction

Best to watch in full screen mode - sorry about the small 12pt font size. BUT:

Click the following link to access a google doc with the commands and the output (it is a stata log text file):

For the next video, Stata Tutorial 2 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKVi3lKe33U), I have increased the font size to 18pt.

I will post a 3rd tutorial, and when I do I will be sure to speak more slowly. Also, visit shafiquejamal.blogspot.com for some misc Stata code that you might find helpful.

Now, here are some tasks:

  1. Create a new variable called super_mpg, that is twice the mpg of the existing mpg variable. Give it a snazzy variable name, e.g. "MPG with my revolutionary fuel-efficiency device".

  2. Find the mean and variance of this new variable
