Re: st: Table to count how many times an event occurs with another

[Katia Bobulova <katia.bobulova@googlemail.com>]

This is an example of my databse:

Date              Time      D1 D2 D3 D4
01/01/2008     8:00       1   0    0   1
01/01/2008     9:00       0   0    0   0
01/01/2008    10:00      0   1    1   0
.....               .......       .    .     .   .

For every day I have something similar to the above example with dummy
variables.
In the fist row (8:30) I have that two dummies happen at the same time
and also in the last row (10:00).
I want to construct a table, in which I have the number of times ( for
each interval throughout my whole sample) I have that events D1 and D4
happen together and D2 and D3 happen together and so on for all
possible combinations.

Thanks,
Katia
