Dear sir
I am very gratitude andThanks for your response

If you are saying this number is (97,989) is the total number and the denominator, again it is not matching with our analysis, I have attached the stata code for the same, let me know whether I have made any mistakes.

These are my stata command used for


***********************************************************
clear all
use "/Users/muneerkalliyil/Desktop/UNICEF/NFHS4/IAKR74FL.DTA"

***APPLYING WEIGHTS************************

*Survey Weights

des v005
gen survweight = v005/1000000
gen stratum = v023
svyset v021 [iweight=survweight], strata(stratum)

****AFTER APPLYING WEIGHTS, JUST WE ARE LOOKING HOW MANY CHILDRENS ARE THERE BELOW 24 MONTHS,

**total number of children under 24 months
svy: tab hw1 if hw1 < 24
*******************************************************

The result says no of obs as 96782;

. svy: tab hw1 if hw1 < 24
(running tabulate on estimation sample)

Number of strata = 2513 Number of obs = 96782
Number of PSUs = 26472 Population size = 93053.216
Design df = 23959

NFHS4 National report gives the total number of children below 24 months as (97989), but our analysis shows as (96782 )


Please let me know, waiting for your reply

Regards
Muneer
