You are now programming in Mata. There are no shortcuts when
programming (there are, but in the end you'll waste more time when you
try to apply them). So you'll just need to read through the basics of
how to program in Mata. A good starting point is type in Stata -help
m1_intro-. Also see:

Hope this helps,
