st: RE: RE: All entries saved as integers
Is it possible that your format for a is %f2.0? However that would give you 3 for your output.

I can't reproduce or explain this.

I suddenly experience that all my entries in stata are saved as
integers?
How can that be?
If I for instance type:
. clear
. set obs 10
obs was 0, now 10
. gen a=2.73456
. disp a
2
While if I use some function it works:
. gen z=uniform()
. disp z
.88350743
What am I doing wrong?
