I'm have some mata code, and if some event occurs, then the code
should immediately teminate and not execute any more statements. I'm
having trouble achieving this simple task.

Take the following example. I do not want x to be assigned the value
0. But "exit(1)" does not stop "x=0" from being executed.

mata
x = 9
exit(1)
x = 0
end


There must be some simple command I'm overlooking here...

Best,

Patrick
