- Information for questions 4 • • Please Download "wages" from Canvas (the link to this dataset is right below the HWA1 questions - it is a Microsoft excel worksheet) and store it in your favorite folder. It contains 797 observations and 16 variables. The "state" variable gives the names of the states involved in this dataset. • You need to have excel on your computer to open this dataset. i. You should use File > Import > Excel Spreadsheet etc. as done in class 3 convert this file into a Stata dataset. Once you are done, write the final STATA code that makes the transformation of an excel file to a STATA file possible. ii.
