I have quite a number of variables named x1mm x2mm x3mm.... and x1mf
x2mf x3mf....

Now I want to run multiple ttest:

ttest	X1mm==x1mf
ttest x2mm==x2mf 

and so forth.

How can I do this without typing each command over and over again?

I suppose some looping as:

foreach v of varlist x1mm-xnmm {
	ttest `v'== (but what here??)

	}

Thank you in advance for your help
