我的数据格式如下:

Month       Date        Time1 Time2 Time3
  Jan      01/01/2018   1234  2345   3456
  Jan      02/01/2018   1234  2346   3457
  Jan      03/02/2018   1234  2346   3145
  Feb      03/02/2018   1234  2347   3458
  Feb      04/02/2018   1235  2398   3456
March      04/03/2018   1235  2347   3456
March      01/03/2018   1236  2345   3456
March      02/03/2018   1234  2567   3897
  Feb      02/02/2018   1236  2346   3478

我想随机选择观察值,以便从每个月和每个时隙中获得两个样本日期和数字。例如,对于JanTime 1,我想获取:01/01/2018123402/01/20181234

如何在Stata中做到这一点?

您可以如下随机选择观测值:

input str5 Month str10 Date Time1 Time2 Time3
Jan      "01/01/2018"   1234  2345   3456
Jan      "02/01/2018"   1234  2346   3457
Jan      "03/02/2018"   1234  2346   3145

Feb      "04/02/2018"   1235  2398   3456
March    "04/03/2018"   1235  2347   3456
March    "01/03/2018"   1236  2345   3456
March    "02/03/2018"   1234  2567   3897
Feb      "02/02/2018"   1236  2346   3478
end

bysort Month (Time1): generate random = runiform()
bysort Month (Time1 random): keep if _n < 3

list, sepby(Month)
