When printing STATA output I suggest you use Courier New font size 10. Thank you note: I am grateful to Professor George Orlov for sharing his class material. This assignment represents a modified version of a STATA homework developed by him. Question 1 The goal of this assignment is to familiarize you with basic work in STATA.

3. COMMAND- corr TOYS SIZE                   or

Go and select the “statistics” option from the toolbar above. Then select the option “Summaries, tables and tests”. Then select “Summary and Descriptive statistics” and select “Correlation and Covariances” from the sub menu which appers.
