Hi, I am analyzing auction data with Stata.
What I would like to do is to generate a variable of equilibrium-bid from a variable called value.
value includes integers from 1 to 100. And I would like to generate equilibrium-bid from value. Unfortunately, I do not have an analytic form of bidding function. Instead, I have a numerical approximation of the bid function (ex 1-> 1.4, 2-> 1.7, 3-> 2.3, ......). So technically, I can generate equilibrium-bid by typing the following.
gen equilibrium-bid = 1.4 if value == 1
replace equilibrium-bid = 1.7 if value == 2
replace equilibrium-bid = 2.3 if value == 3
............
and so on.
But the problem is I have 100 types of values, so it will be inefficient to type 100 lines. Is there any ways to do the same job more conveniently?
Thanks,
Jinsoo
