Hello,

I'm trying to analyze calendar data (vcal_1, vcal_2). I'm working with Zambia dataset of 2013-2014.
Based on the tutorial, I think the coded number for each contraceptive method in DHS survey seems to be different with how it coded in the dataset.

In Zambia DHS 2013-14, condom is number 7 in the survey. Is it still "7" in the calendar variable (vcal_1)?
How should I compare these two?

Thank you,
