Hii

I am using KR file NFHS-4 & 5.
Variable v212 is to respondent's age at first birth.

My query is, is the age in a year the exact year or during that year?

I want keep a sample of those who gave birth before the completion of 18 years.

so syntax should be

keep if v212<18

keep if v212<=18

Thank you!
