Hi, I am trying to reshape the Kenya DHS data.
Now, I believe the data is in wide format, so hv104_01-hv104_24 - represent the sex of each household member within a household? How to go forward with the reshaping?

Also, I want to create a unique household ID and a unique individual ID. The problem is, when I create a unique individual ID before reshaping to long - all individuals in the household gets the same unique ID, hence should I do this after reshaping to long?

Would greatly appreciate your help

Best
