Ok, but I have a problem.
I have to construct a single graph whit Lorenz curve of varname, lorenz
curve of varname where population are ordered in descending order of
varname and a 45° line. To construct the Loren curve where population
are ordered in descending order of varname I typed:
glcurve var , lorenz
gen minvar = 0-var
glcurve var , sortvar(minvar) lorenz gl(t) gl(s) then, for the
"traditional" lorenz curve:
glcurve7 var if area3==1, lorenz gl(t1) p(s2) and to have a single graph:
line s t||function y=x||line t1 s2
But in this way the graph show me the 45° line, but the traditional
lorenz curve is now similar to that construct ordring population in
descending order..so both up the 45° line.
Would it can be the fail?
Quoting [email protected]:
Ok, but I have installed glcurve7, is it ok? Are there difference
between glcurve7 and glcurve?
uoting philippe van kerm <[email protected]>:
-glcurve- available from the Stata Journal website or the SSC
archive will do that.
To order your observations in descending order (rather than the
default ascending order), you can use the -sortvar()- option:
ssc install glcurve
glcurve var , lorenz
gen minvar = 0-var
glcurve var , sortvar(minvar) lorenz
read the help file for -glcurve- to find out about options for
saving curve coordinates for later customizing the resulting plot or
combining curves.
Good luck
Philippe

Objet : st: lorenz curve
Hello,
Is it possible to construct a lorenz curve of a varname computed whit a
population ordered in descending order of varname? Then, is it possible
create a graph with both these curves?
Thank a lot
Claudia
