Multiply regressor to integer in regression

[Mats Krasinski]

Hello. I want to multiply regressor to some value. Like not "reg y x" but "reg y 10*x". I know how to do it in R but in Stata. And I don't want to create additional variables.

Thanks for reading.

Stata doesn't offer this on the fly. You don't need to do it in the sense that you can just divide the coefficients and SEs mentally by 10.

You could replace the variable in question -- or just generate a new variable, which is on the face of it is easy enough.
