Hello
I am trying to generate different indicators for chap 9 for nigeria 2018 to produce different tables the problem is I am trying to generate age through this coding but somehow my software stata keeps on getting stuck and not letting me work please help how else can I produce age variable
choose reference period, last 2 years or last 5 years
*gen period = 24
gen period = 60
if file=="IR" {
gen age = v008 - b3_01
* to check if survey has b19, which should be used instead to compute age.
scalar b19_included=1
capture confirm numeric variable b19_01, exact
if _rc>0 {
* b19 is not present
scalar b19_included=0
}
if _rc==0 {
* b19 is present; check for values
summarize b19_01
if r(sd)==0 | r(sd)==. {
scalar b19_included=0
}
}
if b19_included==1 {
drop age
gen age=b19_01
}
