st: Re: Logit and percentage of correct classification

[jean ries <ries@ires.ucl.ac.be>]

The following lines should do the job

. logit y x
. predict phat, p
. g correct = (phat > 0.5) == y
. ta correct

By the way, if you are keen on logit (and related) models, you may find the 
-spost- package useful

. net from http://www.indiana.edu/~jslsoc/stata/
. net install spostado
