Hello!
I am a bit confused about how the states (variable SState) were coded for the 2003, 2008 and 2013 Nigerian data series for the Northern Nigerian States in the women's file.
1. From my understanding there are 20 Northern Nigerian States, and Rivers is not one of them.
2. For 2003 they are coded by State name, but for 2008 and 2013 some are coded by name, but mainly they are coded by number-
a. How to I know which state each number corresponds to?
Thank you!
