Mata – Matrix language
Stata’s all-new matrix programming language, Mata, is both an interactive environment for manipulating matrices and a full development environment that can produce compiled and optimized code. Mata includes the most up-to-date LAPACK numerical analysis routines, has special features for processing panel data, performs operations on real or complex numbers, and is fully integrated with every aspect of Stata.

Linear mixed models

Survey statistics

Multivariate methods

Multinomial probit
As with most Stata estimators, the new multinomial probit estimator allows linear constraints on the parameters; can produce appropriate SE estimates when the data are clustered or correlated; can produce analytic, bootstrap, and jackknife SEs; and supports a host of postestimation testing and model analyses, such as marginal effects, Wald tests of constraints, Hausman tests, linear and nonlinear combinations of coefficients with SEs and CIs, and predictions of probabilities and other linear or nonlinear combinations with SEs and CIs.
