RE: st: specifying marker labels in twoway scatter

[Nick Cox <n.j.cox@durham.ac.uk>]

Here's another way to get that row vector in Stata. 

numlist "1/100"
local numlist `r(numlist)'
local numlist : subinstr local numlist " " ",", all
matrix b = (`numlist')

That creates a row vector with values 1(1)100. 

The nearest equivalent could be something like 

matrix a = J(1,100,1)

forval j = 1/100 {
	matrix a[1,`j'] = `j'
}

except that I am rusty on Stata matrices. 

Or perhaps you want 100 variables, 1 observation, with values 1..100. 

set obs 1
forval j = 1/100 { 
	gen a`j' = `j'
} 

Or perhaps you don't mean what you say.

Is there an equivalent to Mata's A=(1..100) in Stata ?
