Hello,
Why would it be the case that the same program (e.g. sales.do) used to generate the same dataset (e.g. annual_sales.dta) by one user, and later replicated by another user, results in _cf mismatches of numeric variables when the two annual_sales.dta datasets created by each user are compared? The _cf results show, for example, that the cost field is 1.50 in one dataset, and 1.499999 in the other, for the same record.
No other modifications have been made to the program, and the precision of variable storage is the same in both (double).
Thank you!
