2010-03-23 Thread Cristiano Fini
Hi Everyone, a beginner's question on how to perform some data substitution efficiently. I have a panel dataset, or in other words x individuals observed over a certain time span. For each column or individual, I need to substitute a certain value anytime a certain condition is satisfied. Both the
