dear all,
I am working on a research that uses the DHS dataset and the alkire foster multidimensional poverty index. and I went well until the stage
I try to calculate the deprivation matrix and the deprivation count . when I typed in the 'egen ci=rsum(wg0_*)' command it resulted in error 'variable wg0_* not found'...
the problem I faced can be seen on the photos I attached herewith.
where can possibly be my problem? any help is appreciated. am happy to be contacted through amlaksetegn77@gmail.com
