MNTHPLOT: Stata module for scatter plot for monthly data with repetition of data

Statistical Software Components from Boston College Department of Economics

Abstract: mnthplot produces a scatter plot for yvarlist versus mnthvar with some repetition of data. mnthvar is presumed to take values 1,...,12 for the 12 months of the year. A pad of # months is added so that 12 + # months are shown on the horizontal axis. Showing (12 + #) / 12 annual cycles, where # is say 3 or 6, may give a better picture of seasonal variation by reducing the visual effect of the break at the end of the year.
