One way is to form classes by lower class limits:
. gen to_table = 5.34 + 10 * floor((yourvar - 5.34)/ 10)
. tab to_table
A brief discussion of -floor()- and its sibling -ceil()-
as ways of rounding down and up systematically will
appear in Stata Journal 3(4) 2003. In your case -int()-
would work as well.
