Abstract: xtine is used to generate two variables, one containing percentile and the other containing quantile. The new percentile variables end with the suffix *_pctile, and the quantile variables end with the suffix *_[nq]. Xtine is similar to STATA's xtile command, but is able to make more evenly distributed quantiles.
