| Subject | st: Creating all permutations of ten variables |
| Date | Thu, 3 Feb 2011 16:41:51 +0000 |
Hello all, I have a query about how to create data from scratch, and I'm not quite sure what command would suit. I assume there is some way to loop when creating data but I can't work it out from the data management commands. I want to create a data set containing every possible unique combination of ten variables. The ten variables have 4,3,2,2,3,2,2,3,2, and 3 unique values each respectively. I'd really appreciate any guidance.
