forvalues with skipped values

[Pratap Pundir]

I have about 300 items for which I want to run the forvalues loop. However, I need to skip about 6 values.

Can I do something like

forvalues i = 1/111 113/134 136/139 141/189 191/203 205/222 224/317 {

?

foreach i of numlist 1/111 113/134 136/139 141/189 191/203 205/222 224/317{

May be easier with

forval i=1/317{  
if inlist(`i',112,135,140, 190, 204, 223) continue

Clever! Thanks

Andrew's answer is fine, but check out more detailed discussion at https://www.stata.com/support/faqs/d...-with-foreach/ -- especially Method 1, creating a new grouping variable with egen.

I want to use the forvalues command with number non consecutive as 10 11 13(1) 33
how should i write it?

foreach x of numlist 10 11 13/33 {

as in #2.
