Hello,
when I performs a singular value decomposition of a matrix G
(say) I expect that stata create 3 matrix U W V such that 
U W V =G where W contains the singular value og G in
DECREASING order (this is important to perform later a test of
rank of such marix), but Stata put the smallest singular value
in the top diagonal of W while the rest of singular value are
ordred as expected.
How to fix such problem.
below the code:
mat svd U W V=G
mat list W
W[1,9]
           y1         y1         y1         y1         y1    
    y1
r1  3.538e-18  .61151468  .61151468  .31692701  .31692701 
.16776301

           y1         y1         y1
r1  .16776301  .02892478  .02892478

many thanks 
AbdelRahmen
