Speaking Stata: Graphing distributions
Graphing univariate distributions is central to both statistical graphics, in general, and Stata’s graphics, in particular. Now that Stata 8 is out, a review of official and user-written commands is timely. The emphasis here is on going beyond what is obviously and readily available, with pointers to minor and major trickery and various user-written commands. For plotting histogram-like display...
متن کاملSpeaking Stata: Graphing categorical and compositional data
Abstract. A variety of graphs have been devised for categorical and compositional data, ranging from widely familiar to more unusual displays. Both official Stata commands and user-written programs are available. After a stacking trick for binary responses is explained, bar charts and related displays for cross-tabulations are discussed in detail. Tips and tricks are introduced for plotting cum...
متن کاملSpeaking Stata: Problems with tables, Part I
Tables in some form or another are part and parcel of data management and analysis. The main general-purpose tabulation commands, tabulate, table, and tabstat, are reviewed and compared. When these do not provide a tabulation solution, one key strategy is to prepare the material for tabulation as a set of variables, after which the table itself can be presented with tabdisp or list. This is the...
متن کاملFiniteness Theorems for Perfect Numbers and Their Kin
Since ancient times, a natural number has been called perfect if it equals the sum of its proper divisors; e.g., 6 = 1+2+3 is a perfect number. In 1913, Dickson showed that for each fixed k, there are only finitely many odd perfect numbers with at most k distinct prime factors. We show how this result, and many like it, follow from embedding the natural numbers in the supernatural numbers and i...
متن کامل2030’s Seniors : Kin and Step-Kin
Demographic computer microsimulation is applied to produce projections of numbers and distributions of close kin for the U.S. elderly of 2030. This paper reports results for the non-black population, with special emphasis on the numbers and possible roles of step-kin. The projections indicate that the elderly of 2030 are likely to be moderately deprived in terms of numbers of close living biolo...
