Hi, everyone,

I need suggestion for data transformation
Here is the ditribution of a measurement:

       snk_r1    Frequency     Percent
                ------------------------
           0        1750       91.62
 0    ~ 0.04          55        2.88
 0.04 ~ 0.08          55        2.88
 0.08 ~ 0.12          22        1.15
      > 0.12          28        1.47


This data is seriously biased to zero. I wonder
whether there is any good method to transform
this measurement and make its distribution into
normal distribution, and how to do in stata.

Thanks a lot!

Feiyang
