MATRIXTOOLS: Stata module to build, present and style Stata matrices

Niels Henrik Bruun

Statistical Software Components from Boston College Department of Economics

Abstract: matprint presents Stata matrices in the log. It has a simple but powerful way of setting decimals cellwise. matprint can export Stata matrices in styles smcl, csv, latex, html and markdown. This way output from can be integrated into documents generated by log2markup (SSC). matrix2stata converts a matrix into variables. The key difference to mkmat is that roweq and rownames become categorized variables, i.e., integer-valued with a value label. The purpose is to ease graphing matrix content. metadata is a mash-up of describe and codebook. It can be used on the current file in the data window, and using the using modifier on can specify a non-opened dataset or a path to get a description of the contents of all datasets there. strofnum transform a numeric variable to a string variable using the value label if it exists. strtonum replaces a string variable with a categorical numeric variable with a value label. sumat generates a summary matrix based in part on the command summarize. Statistics like unique values and missing values are added. The resulting matrix is saved for further use. sumat is using matprint for the output. lmatrixtools is the backbone of this package. It is written in Mata. For the curious the source code is also in the package.
