Hello everyone, this is my first post here so please excuse me if the formatting is not great yet.
I am learning stata through a class in college and I currently have a problem set to complete on fixed effects and difference in differences.

The very first question is just a test of average from two datasets. My first thought was to find the mean and then do a t-test. However, the professor is asking for a regression to test the difference in average. "Test whether these average wages are significantly different in 1950 and 2010, and present these results in a well-labeled table. Beware of missing values and use a regression".
I do not understand what she means by it. Should I join the datasets to create a single one? And then if "wage" is the Y, I do not see what my variables would be in the regression.
All I have to do is present the results in a table, but I do not know how to do this in the to-do file.

Thank you so much!
Alex
