Re: st: Re: Generating 'filler' data
..
First, I wouldn't say "can't work" if I were you.
Second, is fillin clairvoyant? No, but it can look at the data you do have and
fill in whatever combinations are missing. If your data does not have any
observations for some buckets, then it won't know. But that can be easily
solved by creating some observations that have all the numbers, run fillin, then
delete the fake observations.
set obs 4096
gen id=0
gen bucket=_n-1
append using mydata
fillin id bucket
drop if id==0
replace value=0 if value==.

Fillin can't work.
After all, how does it know that the limit for the bucket is 4095, and not
3713?
