  • Mac Keyboard Shortcuts Cut, Copy, Paste, and Other Common Shortcuts
    Mac keyboard shortcuts By pressing a combination of keys, you can do things that normally need a mouse, trackpad, or other input device. To use a keyboard shortcut, hold down one or more modifier keys while pressing the last key of the shortcut. For example, to use the shortcut Command-C (copy), hold down Command, press C, then release both keys. Mac menus and keyboards often use symbols for certain keys, including the modifier keys: Command ⌘ Option ⌥ Caps Lock ⇪ Shift ⇧ Control ⌃ Fn If you're using a keyboard made for Windows PCs, use the Alt key instead of Option, and the Windows logo key instead of Command. Some Mac keyboards and shortcuts use special keys in the top row, which include icons for volume, display brightness, and other functions. Press the icon key to perform that function, or combine it with the Fn key to use it as an F1, F2, F3, or other standard function key. To learn more shortcuts, check the menus of the app you're using. Every app can have its own shortcuts, and shortcuts that work in one app may not work in another. Cut, copy, paste, and other common shortcuts Shortcut Description Command-X Cut: Remove the selected item and copy it to the Clipboard. Command-C Copy the selected item to the Clipboard. This also works for files in the Finder. Command-V Paste the contents of the Clipboard into the current document or app. This also works for files in the Finder. Command-Z Undo the previous command. You can then press Command-Shift-Z to Redo, reversing the undo command.

  • “Log” File in Stata
    Updated July 2018 Creating a “Log” File in Stata This set of notes describes how to create a log file within the computer program Stata. It assumes that you have set Stata up on your computer (see the “Getting Started with Stata” handout), and that you have read in the set of data that you want to analyze (see the “Reading in Stata Format (.dta) Data Files” handout). A log file records all your Stata commands and output in a given session, with the exception of graphs. It is usually wise to retain a copy of the work that you’ve done on a given project, to refer to while you are writing up your findings, or later on when you are revising a paper. A log file is a separate file that has either a “.log” or “.smcl” extension. Saving the log as a .smcl file (“Stata Markup and Control Language file”) keeps the formatting from the Results window. It is recommended to save the log as a .log file. Although saving it as a .log file removes the formatting and saves the output in plain text format, it can be opened in most text editing programs. A .smcl file can only be opened in Stata. To create a log file: You may create a log file by typing log using ”filepath & filename” in the Stata Command box. On a PC: If one wanted to save a log file (.log) for a set of analyses on hard disk C:, in the folder “LOGS”, one would type log using "C:\LOGS\analysis_log.log" On a Mac: If one wanted to save a log file (.log) for a set of analyses in user1’s folder on the hard drive, in the folder “logs”, one would type log using "/Users/user1/logs/analysis_log.log" If you would like to replace an existing log file with a newer version add “replace” after the file name (Note: PC file path) log using "C:\LOGS\analysis_log.log", replace Alternately, you can use the menu: click on File, then on Log, then on Begin.

  • 11 Creating New Variables Generate and Replace This Chapter Shows the Basics of Creating and Modifying Variables in Stata
    11 Creating new variables generate and replace This chapter shows the basics of creating and modifying variables in Stata. We saw how to work with the Data Editor in [GSM] 6 Using the Data Editor—this chapter shows how we would do this from the Command window. The two primary commands used for this are • generate for creating new variables. It has a minimum abbreviation of g. • replace for replacing the values of an existing variable. It may not be abbreviated because it alters existing data and hence can be considered dangerous. The most basic form for creating new variables is generate newvar = exp, where exp is any kind of expression. Of course, both generate and replace can be used with if and in qualifiers. An expression is a formula made up of constants, existing variables, operators, and functions. Some examples of expressions (using variables from the auto dataset) would be 2 + price, weight^2 or sqrt(gear ratio). The operators defined in Stata are given in the table below: Relational Arithmetic Logical (numeric and string) + addition ! not > greater than - subtraction | or < less than * multiplication & and >= > or equal / division <= < or equal ^ power == equal != not equal + string concatenation Stata has many mathematical, statistical, string, date, time-series, and programming functions. See help functions for the basics, and see[ D] functions for a complete list and full details of all the built-in functions. You can use menus and dialogs to create new variables and modify existing variables by selecting menu items from the Data > Create or change data menu. This feature can be handy for finding functions quickly.

  • Generating Define.Xml Using SAS® by Element-By-Element and Domain-By-Domian Mechanism Lina Qin, Beijing, China
    PharmaSUG China 2015 - 30 Generating Define.xml Using SAS® By Element-by-Element And Domain-by-Domian Mechanism Lina Qin, Beijing, China ABSTRACT An element-by-element and domain-by-domain mechanism is introduced for generating define.xml using SAS®. Based on CDISC Define-XML Specification, each element in define.xml can be generated by applying a set of templates instead of writing a great deal of “put” statements. This will make programs more succinct and flexible. The define.xml file can be generated simply by combining, in proper order, all of the relevant elements. Moreover, as each element related to a certain domain can be separately created, it is possible to generate a single-domain define.xml by combining all relevant elements of that domain. This mechanism greatly facilitates generating and validating define.xml. Keywords: Define-XML, define.xml, CRT-DDS, SDTM, CDISC, SAS 1 INTRODUCTION Define.xml file is used to describe CDISC SDTM data sets for the purpose of submissions to FDA[1]. While the structure of define.xml is set by CDISC Define-XML Specification[1], its content is subject to specific clinical study. Many experienced SAS experts have explored different methods to generate define.xml using SAS[5][6][7][8][9]. This paper will introduce a new method to generate define.xml using SAS. The method has two features. First, each element in define.xml can be generated by applying a set of templates instead of writing a great deal of “put” statements. This will make programs more succinct and flexible. Second, the define.xml can be generated on a domain-by-domain basis, which means each domain can have its own separate define.xml file.
