Question about codebook #1

Closed irmacastaneda0822 closed 3 years ago

irmacastaneda0822 commented 4 years ago

Hi Crystal,

For the private high school data (pss 2017-18), their codebook is a 100 page word document. Is there a way to read in this file or can we only read in excel files? I was hoping to use the looping method you taught me to add variable labels to the data if possible.

Thanks! @cyouh95

It looks like there's also an excel file under "File Layout" that contains the variable names and labels. I think you should be able to convert that to a CSV and read it in, but let me know if you run into any issues! @irmacastaneda0822
