Perhaps recode will do the job:


. sysuse auto, clear
(1978 Automobile Data)

. recode price (0/5000=1 "Cheap") (5001/10000=2 "Not cheap") (10000/.
=3 "Expensive")
> , generate(priceclass)
(74 differences between price and priceclass)

. tab priceclass

  RECODE of |
      price |
    (Price) |      Freq.     Percent        Cum.
------------+-----------------------------------
      Cheap |         37       50.00       50.00
  Not cheap |         27       36.49       86.49
  Expensive |         10       13.51      100.00
------------+-----------------------------------
      Total |         74      100.00
