Anna has a problem:
I drew a sample on my laptop using the following commands:
set seed 123456789
preserve
keep if iconst==1 /*sampling only construction sites*/
sample 30, count
I run my code on my desktop and I am getting different sites selected.
...
My problems are:
-the data was read in and then no further sorted.
-don't have the original computer that I did the work on
Here's the code for reading in:
insheet using "$lga\list of school_kaduna_with_construction.csv", clear
--------------------------------------------------------------------
I have no suggestions other than identifying the observations sampled
by computer 1 and manually adding the information to the dataset at
computer 2.
Maybe computer 1 used a different Stata version than computer 2;
I don't know if that could affect the result. Also, although you
claim that you did not sort the data, be aware that some commands,
e.g. -codebook,compact-, involve sorting.
Good luck,
Svend
