Syntax

Control flow structures

foreach var in age income education {
    summarize `var'
}

Delimiter

Change delimiter to ";" or carriage return in a do file
#delimit ;
#delimit cr

  • pdelimit.pdf

    When a do-file begins, the delimiter is a carriage return. The command #delimit ; changes the delimiter to a semicolon. To restore the carriage return delimiter inside a file, use #delimit cr.
