发帖数: 74 | 1 i have a set of dummies, say d1 d2...d9, and i have another variable, say p.
now i want to multiply each dummy by p, and generate a new set of variable,
say pd1=p*d1,pd2=p*d2,....
how can i do that in once. i know the cumbersome and stupid way is to
generate one by one, like
gen pd1=p*d1
gen pd2=p*d2
...
thanks. | h****i

codes like these in you do file
foreach var in vallist p1-pn {
gen p`var'=p*`var'
}
you can search help file for foreach to see the details | a**n

发帖数: 74 | 6 new question comes.
since in my model, I have two firms, and I have one indicator for each firm,
say p1,p2. and another set of product dummies.
I know by xi I can generate p1*d(n), but since I need to generate p1*d(n)
and p2*d(n) at the same time, and if I use xi and generate p1*d(n) first and
p2*d(n) second, p2*d(n) will replace p1*d(n), and I only get p2*d(n).
Another problem is by using xi, it not only generates p*d(n), but also
generate d(n), so every time I have to drop d(n) after I generat | g****s
