Dear Nick, Thanks a lot. I converted a lower-triangular matrix from stata to mata form to apply the mata makesymmetric command but it doesn't work. The command is : makesymmetric(mat_S2) [symmetric] 1 2 +---------+ 1 | 0 | 2 | 1 0 | +---------+ Would you have any suggestion? Best, Bianca . mat foo = J(6,7,42) . mat li foo foo[6,7] c1 c2 c3 c4 c5 c6 c7 r1 42 42 42 42 42 42 42 r2 42 42 42 42 42 42 42 r3 42 42 42 42 42 42 42 r4 42 42 42 42 42 42 42 r5 42 42 42 42 42 42 42 r6 42 42 42 42 42 42 42 . mata : mat_foo = st_matrix("foo") . mata : mat_foo 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 +------------------------------------+ 1 | 42 42 42 42 42 42 42 | 2 | 42 42 42 42 42 42 42 | 3 | 42 42 42 42 42 42 42 | 4 | 42 42 42 42 42 42 42 | 5 | 42 42 42 42 42 42 42 | 6 | 42 42 42 42 42 42 42 | +------------------------------------+ . mata : st_matrix("foo", mat_foo :/ 7) . mat li foo foo[6,7] c1 c2 c3 c4 c5 c6 c7 r1 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 r2 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 r3 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 r4 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 r5 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 r6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 --- On Thu, 11/1/12, Bianca B. <bianca268@yahoo.com> wrote: > From: Bianca B. <bianca268@yahoo.com> > Subject: Stata matrix to Mata matrix form > To: statalist@hsphsun2.harvard.edu > Date: Thursday, November 1, 2012, 7:25 AM > Hi Stata users, > > Does anyone know how can I get stata matrix in mata matrix? > > Bianca > > * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?search * http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/resources/statalist-faq/ * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/
