Move regexp to callout. #25

Closed ariedamuco closed 5 years ago

We can remove regexp if you think it complicates Episode 2.

Updated: Not sure why you have postponed talking about the replace option. Currently, it's in Episode 5, but you can introduce it here and repeat it there.

Want to talk about the fact that Stata does not allow you to overwrite an existing dataset?

save "data/WDI-select-variables.dta" use "data/WDI-select-variables.dta", clear gen gdp_per_capita=1 save "data/WDI-select-variables.dta"

file "data/WDI-select-variables.dta" already exists r(602);

Use replace if you would like to overwrite an existing dataset.
