Document Summary
It is widespread in academia, particular in economics, sociology and in the health sciences. It has a much larger following outside of academia: starting stata. In windows, stata is typically installed here: start-> all programs->stata 12. Stata is under data analysis : start -> all programs -> data analysis -> stata 12. Click on a stata data set (. dta) . Click on a file with the extension . do (including empty files) . The last two alternatives have the advantage that any file that you save by default will save in the same directory. You can find out in which directory you are by typing pwd in the command window. When you first buy stata you should update once to get the most recent version. If you use a version installed by the math faculty you can ignore this. // check whether you have the most recent version of stata. // install the most recent update: getting help help command.
