Hi,
I am new to stata user list. I want to use weight in summarize command.
Basically my question is this: Here is I have wage and weight for each observation. I want to calculate statistics using weight like weghted mean, S.E. etc. I will appreciate if some one help me to know how to use weight in summarize command.
wage weight
2000 37.40294
15000 37.0777
715 37.40294
16000 36.92306
5100 36.92306
18079 36.92306
15638 36.92306
40000 37.0777
7500 36.92306
The weighted mean should be 13315.55.
