Sir, I have a dataset in stata which has a string variable having names i want to list only those names which starts or contains a particular characters. Please help me out with the command
My question in brief sir .. for example I have a dataset with two variables one string variable and another numeric variable i.e., name and age if i want to list people who are under age of 10 , the command is like list if age < 10 simply stata list out the data, but i want to list out the only people who's names are starting with "S" or a part of name with "ra"..
Usually in mysql we write this command select * from xxxx where name like "S%" or name like "%ran%"
Which is very simple... but i couldn't get.. Please help me out.. Thank You Sir
Hey, Sudhakar. There are multiple ways to solve this, and I'll give you some directions I think light be helpful but won't solve your specific problem. You'll have to find some sort of pattern in your strings and use string manipulation functions to reach your goal
For example, you can create a new binary variable based in a condition (e.g. string starts with letter 'A') and the filter through this column. Here's a related solution that might help out: www.stata.com/support/faqs/data-management/splitting-string-variable/
