Stata version <17 #3

Open solidubash opened 1 day ago

solidubash commented 1 day ago

Issue: Using a version of Stata <17, the console returns an error: "this is version 16.1 of Stata; it cannot run version 17.0 programs".

Expected behaviour: Hammock plot package would run as per help page

Potential resolution: Mention the package requires Stata version ≥17. Or, adapt package for those without version 17+

Thanks!

Thank you for your comment. This is a good point. I suspect I can just change everywhere it says version 17.0 to 16.1; but I have to look at the specific things. I will post again when I address this point.

Thank you for the fast response.

I have been looking for a good way to show within-person change over 3 points in time for a small group of my students. Your hammock plots seem to be an excellent way to do so.

Thanks for considering this issue. There is also a minor issue in the help page when mentioning how to download the package: the from command needs to wrap the URL in ().

All the best
