In honor of today's Pokémon news (no spoilers), here's a Gigantimax Pikachu graph made only using Stata's twoway area command.

@ayesharshahid Here's a skeleton do-file as an example - the website (https://t.co/WNJVEtZyKB) isn't perfect but you can always sign up for some other geocode api (such as Google Maps) and use this same format.

@startupecon No problem!

[Belen @_belenchavez]

@startupecon Cool thanks, insheet was “retired” after version 12 https://t.co/jiokDtlGwO.

import delimited has a few nice options for dealing with quotes as well, bindquotes and stripquotes.

[Belen @_belenchavez]

@startupecon What version of Stata do you have?

[Belen @_belenchavez]

@toddrjones @Stata Yes. In General Preferences -> Go to Data Editor Tab -> Uncheck “Include variable name on copy to Clipboard”

[Belen @_belenchavez]

@dynamic_choice It’s the first observation

[Belen @_belenchavez]

@lucyferr85 If the variables are in the right order, you can use the rename group syntax:

ren (v45-v66) name#, addnumber(2000)

@RyanReedHill @Stata Try it for yourself. Worked for me.

. sreshape long pmids, i(name_id) j(paper_num) missing(drop)

[Belen @_belenchavez]

#StataTip use -sreshape- to speed up your reshapes in Stata. Type findit sreshape to download https://t.co/NifTy7N8uh

[Belen @_belenchavez]

@RyanReedHill @Stata How do the times change if you use sreshape? It’s is a faster reshape and has options for missing(). SJ article here: https://t.co/NifTy7N8uh

Bill Gould, President and Head of development of StataCorp, shares his thoughts on Stata 16. https://t.co/5UEeNKh0Zf #BestStataEver #Stata16

[Belen @_belenchavez]

@startupecon @Stata Yep. Outer quotes get stripped as string delimiters. Old statalist https://t.co/JwTKMMkkyU. Regular expressions substitute below - instead of looping through initials

gen firstname = regexs(0) if regexm(name, “[A-Za-z]+”)
