How double data in row?

[Svetlana Bondar]

Hello! Help, please. I have a table showing how many people are at a certain age (column "number"), i.e. in the table data of 12 people, not 4 people. How to make statistics appear for all 12 people, and not for 4 people? It may be necessary to increase the number of rows, duplicating them using the data of the column "number"?

In the future, when showing data examples, please use the -dataex- command to do so. If you are running version 16 or a fully updated version 15.1 or 14.2, -dataex- is already part of your official Stata installation. If not, run -ssc install dataex- to get it. Either way, run -help dataex- to read the simple instructions for using it. -dataex- will save you time; it is easier and quicker than typing out tables. It includes complete information about aspects of the data that are often critical to answering your question but cannot be seen from tabular displays or screenshots. It also makes it possible for those who want to help you to create a faithful representation of your example to try out their code, which in turn makes it more likely that their answer will actually work in your data.
