Actually, I don't get the same result. I used b8 (age of children) and used tab b8 and it showed 10935 observations but when i use svy:tab b8 it shows the same number of observations 10935 but population size is 11040. Whereas, when i use b4 (gender of child) and use tab b4, it shows 11763 observations and when I use tab b4 if b5==1, then it shows 10935, same as b8. But, here is the interesting part, when I use svy: tab b4 it shows observations as 11763 and population size as 11978 but when I use svy: tab b4 if b5==1, then I get 11040 in population size. So, I think svy has a role to play here. But, I don't know what is 11040 then? If it is the count representing children under 5 years of age and alive then why didn't tab b4 if b5==1 give the same number?
