Well, the ratio is easily obtained with the -ratio- command, and if you do need it in the table, you might have to resort to -tabdisp- and construct the table by hand (which is not as difficult as it first sounds...) :-)

Betreff: st: -tabulate- and ratio "number of 1/number of 0"
Dear Statalisters:
I have a dummy variable "small_profit" and use the -tabulate- command
for several countries (see output excerpt below).
bysort country: tabulate small_profit
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-> country = AUS
small_profi |
t | Freq. Percent Cum.
------------+-----------------------------------
0 | 2,651 56.52 56.52
1 | 2,039 43.48 100.00
------------+-----------------------------------
Total | 4,690 100.00
I am looking for a way to get the ratio: number of "1"/number of "0".
I read the help of -tabulate- and -table- but did not find a solution.
Would you have any thoughts?
Best regards
Hervé Stolowy
