Stata N. I already have an id variable and i have multiple observations per id but i want a new id variable containing 1 for the first id 2 for the second and so on. Create lag or lead variables using subscripts.
If var1 n 1 var1 n i 1 given that you have 50 observations per id this cycles through all observations keeps the first one that is coded 1 in var1 and sets all. Create lag or lead variables using subscripts. N basically indexes observations rows.
The expression n 1 means that the value of the variable income of the following row the male s partner is to be allocated to the variable pincome.
Python is a general purpose programming language where a variable is not a column of data. N is stata notation for the current observation number. In a 10 observation dataset n takes on the values 1 2 10. N is the stata way of referring to the observation number.
